Wrongful termination happens when an employer fires an employee for an illegal reason — such as discrimination, retaliation, or whistleblowing. While most jobs are “at-will,” your employer cannot terminate you for exercising your legal rights or belonging to a protected class.
Yes — but only if the firing is lawful. Employers in New York and New Jersey don’t need to give notice to end employment. However, if your firing was connected to discrimination, retaliation, or a violation of public policy, you may have a wrongful termination case.
If you were fired after reporting harassment, discrimination, wage violations, or unsafe conditions, it’s worth speaking with an attorney. Our team can review your situation confidentially and determine whether your employer broke the law.
Being wrongfully terminated can be overwhelming — but you have rights, and we’re here to protect them. Our attorneys have helped hundreds of employees across New York and New Jersey get justice after unlawful firings.
Speak with our team today. Your consultation is free, confidential, and there are no fees unless we win.
