Reasons why you should hire a Competent and Diligent Chosen Employment
Lawyer, Attorney for your Wrongful Termination?
Our jobs are, generally, an important part of our lives. Especially these days,
where finding a good job is a difficult task: keeping it can be even more
challenging.
Often the workplace is fraught with issues such as discrimination, harassment,
favoritism, and more that could prompt an impulsive manager to fire an
employee.
What if your job is terminated irrationally and wrongfully?
First let us define a few terms such as:
What is Wrongful Termination?
Wrongful termination or wrongful discharge is a legal term, which is utilized to
describe a situation, where the employer has breached its contractual agreement
with the employee or a provision of the employment law.
It is important to remember that depending on the jurisdiction, not all terms of
employments need to be in writing, in a formal contract. A de facto contract can
be formed by virtue of the employment relationship, itself.
Regardless of whether your contract is formal with a hundred-page handbook or
a handshake, the following terminations could be construed as wrongful
termination:
1. Retaliation:
Your employer cannot fire you because you filed a claim of discrimination or
participated in a discrimination case’s investigation.
2. Discrimination:
Your employer is not allowed to fire you because of your race, creed, color,
religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, or national origin.
3. Refusal to commit an unlawful act:
Your employer cannot fire you because of your act of insubordination to commit
an illegal act, and so on.
In case of a wrongful termination, you should always consult with an Experienced,
Diligent and Compassionate Chosen Ventura Employment Lawyer. Your Attorney
would find all the necessary evidence and testimonies, expert witnesses, etc.,
required to prove that the termination was wrongful. At which point, you may be
able to take your job back and/or be justly compensated for the wrongful
dismissal.
What is Constructive Dismissal?
Under employment law Constructive Dismissal or Discharge occurs, when you
resign from your employment because, your employer has created a hostile work
environment, which you no longer reasonably can tolerate.
While you may have a clear cause of action against your employer, nonetheless,
you must prove the wrongful facts, which led to your resignation.
Different jurisdictions define the requirements to prove a case of Constructive
Dismissal in various ways. California for instance has defined it as following:
"In order to establish a constructive discharge, an employee must plead and
prove, by the usual preponderance of the evidence standard, that the employer
either intentionally created or knowingly permitted working conditions that were
so intolerable or aggravating at the time that a reasonable employer would realize
that a reasonable person in the employee's position would be compelled to
resign.”
