Losing your job is stressful, but losing it unlawfully is devastating. Even though California is an “at-will” employment state, employers cannot fire you for illegal reasons. If you were terminated for reporting misconduct, refusing to break the law, taking protected medical leave, or because of discrimination, you may have a strong wrongful termination claim.
