Red flags your firing may have been illegal
Many employees are fired for reasons that may violate California law, often right after they speak up, take leave, or report an issue.
“I reported something at work… then I was fired.”
You raised a concern about something illegal or unethical, and shortly after, you were let go.
“I took protected leave… and came back to problems.”
You took time off you were entitled to, and your employer replaced you or pushed you out.
“I reported sexual harassment… and then I was fired.”
You spoke up about inappropriate behavior, and shortly after, you were let go or pushed out.
“I told them I was expecting… and everything changed.”
Your employer treated you differently, reduced your role, or let you go after you shared the news.
“I asked for an accommodation… and got pushed out.”
After you asked for support at work, your employer stopped accommodating you or let you go.
“I worked there for years… then I was suddenly replaced.”
You were older or more experienced, and were replaced or let go without a clear reason.
“I complained to HR… and then I was let go.”
After speaking up, your performance was questioned or you were written up, then fired.
If any of these sound familiar, you may have a valid claim.
