Wrongful Termination

Although most California employees are “at-will” and can be fired at the discretion of their employer, any termination motivated by discrimination, retaliation, fraud or violation of a signed or implied contract is illegal. When an employee is fired because of his/her age, gender, race, religion or disability, for refusing to submit to sexual advances, or in retaliation for reporting misconduct or refusing to commit an illegal act, he/she may pursue legal action against their employer for wrongful termination.

Due to the “at-will” status of most employees in California, an employer often will offer an allegedly legitimate reason for terminating the employee in a wrongful termination case. To prevail, the employee must show not only that his/her employer had an ulterior motive. Given the difficulty of proving wrongful termination, it is imperative that you have an experienced, results-oriented attorney who is skilled in handling such matters.
