01. Employment Law
Wrongful Termination
Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired in violation of legal protections — such as being let go due to discrimination, retaliation, or refusal to engage in illegal activity. While many employment relationships are "at-will," meaning either party can end the relationship at any time, there are strict limits on how and why a termination can occur. State and federal laws prohibit firings based on race, gender, age, disability, religion, national origin, and other protected characteristics. Employees are also protected when they report workplace violations, take family or medical leave, or participate in investigations.
For employers, understanding the legal boundaries of termination is just as important as for employees. Mishandling a dismissal — even if unintentional — can lead to costly lawsuits, damage to reputation, and business disruption. Proper documentation, clear workplace policies, and legal guidance help ensure decisions are lawful and defensible. For employees who believe they’ve been wrongfully terminated, pursuing legal counsel quickly is crucial to preserve rights and assess options for compensation or reinstatement.
Wage & Hour Disputes
Wage and hour laws govern how employees are paid, including minimum wage, overtime, meal and rest breaks, and proper classification as exempt or non-exempt. Violations often occur when employers misclassify workers, withhold wages, or fail to pay for overtime hours worked. These issues not only impact an employee’s financial stability but can also lead to systemic workplace abuse if left unchecked. Employees have the right to fair pay and can file claims if their compensation does not meet legal standards.
On the employer side, staying compliant with wage laws is essential to avoid penalties, audits, or litigation. Misunderstandings about exempt status, independent contractors, or record-keeping requirements are common — but ignorance of the law is not a defense. Proactive legal review of pay practices and employee classifications can save businesses time, money, and legal headaches. Whether you're an employee recovering unpaid wages or an employer seeking compliance, legal support ensures your actions are both fair and legally sound.
