If you have been fired or retaliated against by your employer for complaining about unpaid wages, overtime violations, or other wage and hour issues, you may have a legal claim for wrongful termination.
If you have been a victim of retaliation or wrongful termination related to wage and hour claims, you may be entitled to various remedies, such as reinstatement, back pay, front pay, emotional distress damages, punitive damages, and attorney fees. However, pursuing these claims can be complex and challenging, especially if your employer denies or covers up their wrongdoing. That is why you need the help of an experienced and aggressive law firm that focuses on wage and hour litigation.
Retaliation is any adverse action that your employer takes against you because you engaged in a protected activity, such as filing a wage and hour claim, reporting a labor violation, or participating in an investigation. Retaliation can include firing, demoting, suspending, harassing, or discriminating against you. Retaliation is illegal under both federal and state laws, such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and the California Labor Code.
Wrongful termination is a type of retaliation that occurs when your employer fires you for an unlawful reason, such as your protected activity. Wrongful termination can also occur when your employer fires you for refusing to violate the law, such as working off the clock or falsifying records. Wrongful termination is a violation of public policy and can give rise to a lawsuit against your employer.
