FAQ
California laws protect you when you have a medical condition that impacts your ability to work. The California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) prohibits employer discrimination based on actual or perceived medical conditions, including firing and other adverse employment actions.
Wrongful termination cases can be difficult to win since the employee must provide evidence that their discharge was unlawful. Although assembling solid proof and hiring legal counsel improves the odds, employers frequently contend the dismissal was justified due to performance-related issues.
In Pennsylvania, wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired for reasons that are illegal or violate public policy. This can include being terminated based on discrimination, retaliation, or for exercising their legal rights such as taking leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act.
Some important things that you will need to have a successful claim after you have completed the previous required steps include: Proving the termination was illegal. You must prove that your firing violated California labor laws or public policy. Causation. Damages. Employer's defense.
If you are fired because you are pregnant, have a disability, are on maternity leave or complained about illegal discrimination, you may have a wrongful termination case.
In order to prove wrongful termination, it is important to ensure that you have written documentation of statements and other evidence that you might be able to use during the case. This may be something as simple as a derogatory comment from your employer.
Pennsylvania, (like nearly every other state) is an ``at-will'' employment state. That means, unless you have an employment contract that says otherwise, you can be terminated at any time, for any reason (or even no reason at all), and without notice.
When you have a lawyer for a wrongful termination case the likelihood of receiving compensation is 64% and the likelihood of receiving compensation without a lawyer is 30%.
