Wrongful Termination Lawyer
Fired unfairly? You may have legal grounds to act. We represent people who were wrongfully terminated, often in connection with employment discrimination, employer retaliation, or violations of employment law.
If you lost your job due to illegal or biased reasons, our wrongful termination attorneys will help you pursue compensation and hold your former employer accountable.



At-will employment and what it means
Many workers in the U.S. are considered "at-will employees," meaning your employer can fire you without cause. But "at-will" doesn't mean "without limits." Employers cannot fire employees for illegal reasons, and these include discrimination, retaliation, or violations of public policy or an existing contract.
What is wrongful termination?
Wrongful termination refers to being fired in a way that breaks state or federal law. This includes being let go for reporting illegal activity, taking protected medical leave, filing a workers' compensation claim, or raising concerns about discrimination or safety violations. If your firing was unfair and unlawful, you may have a wrongful termination claim.
Losing your job under unfair or suspicious circumstances is more than a career setback—it can also threaten your financial stability, health coverage, and mental health. If your employer fired you for standing up for your rights, taking protected medical leave, reporting unsafe conditions, or because of who you are, you're not overreacting. You're facing a legal issue and not just a personal one.
Wrongful termination happens quietly, often under the cover of at-will employment or vague excuses. But that doesn't make it legal. You may have a strong wrongful termination case if your firing violated federal or state laws, such as the Civil Rights Act, the Family Medical Leave Act, or anti-discrimination protections.
An experienced employment attorney can help you seek compensation and hold your employer accountable under labor laws in your at-will employment state.
