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.
