Wrongful Termination

Wrongful termination often occurs when employers are not happy when an employee is injured on the job. Good employees are often looked down upon and treated badly after an injury. Some employers tend to believe that injured workers are hurt off the job, are faking or exaggerate their injuries. Employers wrongfully terminate employees who have been injured at work, even if it was not the employee’s fault.

This type of employer conduct is outrageous and unlawful. It is unlawful to discriminate or wrongfully discharge an employee who is covered by State and Federal law. If you’ve been wrongfully terminated, you may be entitled to reinstatement, money damages and an injunction against the employer.

Some of the reasons for a valid claim:

• Breach of Good Faith and Fair Dealing
• Retaliation
• Constructive Discharge
• Breach of Explicit or Implied Contract
• Discrimination
• Defamation of Character
• Illegal Acts
• Family or Medical Leave
