Do I Have a Wrongful Termination Case

Were You Fired Illegally?

Year after year, Ali had been one of the top producers on the shop floor. After his employer hired a new shift supervisor, he began hearing ethnic slurs and comments about his religious practices and national origin. When Ali went to human resources to report it, he was told there was no evidence to back up the complaint. Ali’s supervisor later tells Ali that he shouldn’t have tried to get the supervisor in trouble. Less than a week later, he was fired after reporting for his shift a half-hour late due to a traffic jam.

Start By Scheduling A Free Consultation With Our Office

No lawyer should tell you after just a few minutes over the phone that you will win your wrongful termination lawsuit. California is an “at-will” employment state, which means that people are free to change jobs whenever they like and employers have a lot of freedom in eliminating jobs for business purposes. But firing a person based on retaliation for standing up for their civil rights or due to discrimination is illegal. An experienced employment attorney can help you understand your rights and navigate the legal process to seek compensation for the harm you have suffered.
