The Right Lawyers to Talk to When You've Been Let Go for All the Wrong Reasons
At-will employment laws give employers the right to terminate most employees for almost any reason and even for no reason at all. However, if you are a union member, a civil service employee, a member of a protected class or are working under the terms of an express or implied employment contract – and you have been fired by your employer – you may be able to sue your employer for wrongful termination.
At the Murrieta/Temecula, California, law firm of Kodam & Associates, P.C., you will find experienced attorneys who can help you effectively assert your legal rights in exactly these situations.
Wrongful termination occurs when an employer:
- Fires an employee in violation of the terms of an employment contract
- Fires an employee who exercised their legal right to bring a sexual harassment, discrimination or wage and hour claim, to report fraud or safety violations, to file for workers' compensation benefits or to cooperate with a third party investigation into employer misconduct
- Fires an employee because of race, age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, nationality, disability, medical conditions or military commitments
- Fires an employee for refusing to engage in an illegal activity
- Fires an employee in violation of written procedures contained in an employee handbook
- Fires an employee for legally exercising First Amendment rights
