Wrongful Termination
If you have been fired from your job for an illegal reason, you may have a wrongful termination claim. California is an at-will employment state, but employers cannot terminate employees for reasons that violate state or federal law. This includes termination based on discrimination, retaliation for reporting illegal activity, taking protected leave, or exercising legal rights.
Key Areas
Termination in violation of public policy
Breach of employment contract
Retaliatory termination
Constructive discharge
Retaliation / Whistleblower
California law protects employees who report illegal activity, safety violations, or other unlawful conduct in the workplace. If you have been punished, demoted, or fired for speaking up, you may have a retaliation or whistleblower claim.
Key Areas
Whistleblower retaliation
Retaliation for filing complaints
Protection for reporting safety violations
OSHA and Labor Code protections
Discrimination
Under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and federal law, employers are prohibited from discriminating against employees based on protected characteristics. If you have been treated differently because of who you are, we can help.
