New York City Wrongful Termination Lawyers
If you've lost your job recently, you may or may not understand why this happened. In fact, you may have gotten several answers, vague answers or no answers at all if you've sought a reason for the termination of your employment. If that's the case, and you feel that you've been treated unfairly, contact the law firm of Cary Kane LLP to schedule an initial consultation to discuss a potential claim for wrongful termination. Below are a few issues that can give rise to a claim of wrongful termination. Lawyers are here to listen to your situation, and to help you protect your rights.
Discrimination
Federal, state and local laws protect workers from being terminated or otherwise treated unfairly on the basis of several classifications. These classifications include race, gender, age, disability, religious beliefs and in some cases, sexual orientation. If you feel that your job has changed negatively or you've lost your job outright based on any of these factors, contact a lawyer to discuss wrongful termination at Cary Kane LLP immediately to analyze the rights available to you.
Retaliation
If you complained about discrimination or any other legal issue that you believe violated statutes and are subsequently fired, you could have a valid claim for retaliation. Within this realm of the law, you don't even need to be terminated to bring such a claim - your employer may merely have the conditions of your employment changed. A claim for retaliation depends on the facts. The lawyers at Cary Kane LLP will analyze whether you have a claim for wrongful termination.
The two issues above are far from the only bases for a claim of wrongful termination. One fact to keep in mind is that these types of claims can be difficult to prove, which is why you'll need the help of an attorney in order to fully understand whether pursuing a claim for wrongful termination would be in your best interests. Contact the law firm today to begin the process of understanding your legal options.
