As an employee, you have rights. It is our duty to help uphold these rights and see that you are treated fairly in the workplace.

What is considered wrongful termination in California?

Both federal and California state laws protect employees from discrimination in the workplace on the basis of one’s gender, race, age, religion, or sexual orientation is unlawful as those identities are considered a protected class.

It is important to note that simply having one or more of these identities does not mean any termination you face is wrongful, but if you are being fired based solely or largely upon your protected class identity, you may have a case for wrongful termination.

Employees are also protected from being terminated as a retaliatory act by their employer after reporting or threatening to report unlawful or unethical conduct that they witness in the workplace.

Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired due to:

Age
Race
Gender
Sexuality
Disability

This is a serious problem that requires swift legal action. Not only can taking legal action give you the opportunity to seek justice, but it can also help prevent this from happening to someone else in the future. Our team at V.
