Client Testimonial: A CEO’s Perspective on PBO Advisory’s PAGA Support

By PBO Advisory Group

“I just wrapped up a Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) audit closing meeting with Nicole Devine and Kristin Pantel from PBO Advisory, along with Cristina Murillo from TencerSherman LLP. I can’t express enough appreciation for how Kristin led the audit process over the past few weeks. She kept us informed, reassured us every step of the way, and handled everything with professionalism and care. Not only did she guide us seamlessly through the audit, but she also took the time to acknowledge the dedication and thoughtfulness of our employees—something that truly means a lot. It was remarkable to hear that, among all the compliant audits, ours stood out as one of the cleanest they’ve seen.

Receiving a PAGA notice was a shock and incredibly stressful, but Kristin’s thorough explanations and attention to detail brought such relief. I had tears in my eyes when she shared that only minor issues were found—nothing concerning or trending. Kristin, Nicole, and Cristina spoke highly of how we run our organization, praised our incredible team, and recognized the consistency and effort we put into maintaining a strong, compliant workplace.

I feel truly fortunate to have such an exceptional team—people who are not only dedicated to ensuring our company remains a leader in our industry but who also lead with integrity, act with heart, and always strive to do what’s right. Their hard work and unwavering commitment shape our company’s success, and hearing that recognized in the audit was incredibly meaningful.

Throughout this process, the professionalism, composure, and attention to detail from everyone involved were truly impressive. The dedication and expertise demonstrated by the PBO Advisory team made a challenging situation much more manageable. Their guidance and thorough approach reinforced the value of working with trusted partners who not only ensure compliance but also support the ongoing strength and success of an organization.”
