Fired Unfairly or Without Cause?

Call 888-8-MEPEGO We’ll Stand Up for Your Rights.

Losing your job is stressful enough — but being fired illegally or unfairly is unacceptable. At Jacobs Law Firm, APC (MePego), we fight for employees across Los Angeles and Sherman Oaks who have been wrongfully terminated, ensuring they get justice, compensation, and their voice back.

Understanding Wrongful Termination

California is an “at-will” employment state, but that doesn’t mean an employer can fire someone for an illegal reason. If you were terminated due to discrimination, retaliation, or in violation of public policy, you may have a valid claim for wrongful termination.

We handle cases involving:

Retaliation after reporting harassment or unsafe conditions
Termination based on race, gender, age, religion, or disability
Whistleblower retaliation
Firing due to pregnancy or medical leave (FMLA/CFRA violations)
Constructive discharge (forced resignation due to hostile environment)

Our team investigates your case and builds strong evidence to prove your rights were violated.

Common Signs of Wrongful Termination

Fired shortly after filing a complaint or report

Terminated despite good performance.
