Wrongful Termination Claims

Wrongful termination claims arise when an employee believes they were fired from their job in violation of legal rights. This can happen if the termination breaches an employment contract, violates anti-discrimination laws, or occurs in retaliation for whistleblowing or exercising legal rights. Employees may seek compensation for lost wages, emotional distress, or other damages. To succeed in a wrongful termination claim, the individual typically must provide evidence that their dismissal was unfair or unlawful based on specific legal protections. Understanding your rights and the circumstances of your termination is crucial for navigating such claims.
