Common Questions About Wrongful Termination
General information only — not legal advice.
What makes a termination "wrongful"?
A termination is wrongful when it violates federal or state law — firing based on protected characteristics, retaliating against whistleblowing, or violating employment contract terms. Even at-will employees have protections against illegal termination.
What should I do if I think I was wrongfully terminated?
Document everything — save emails, performance reviews, and notes about conversations. Many employment claims have filing deadlines, so consulting an attorney promptly is advisable. Do not sign any severance agreement without legal review.
How long do I have to file a wrongful termination claim?
Deadlines vary by state and type of claim. Federal discrimination claims typically must be filed with the EEOC within 180–300 days. State deadlines may differ. An attorney can advise on the specific deadlines that apply to your situation.
