What Is Wrongful Termination?

Wrongful termination happens when your employer fires you for unlawful reasons. These may include discrimination against you because of your identity, such as race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, disability, or medical condition.

This behavior is a violation of both state and federal laws, including Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA). You can file a lawsuit against your employer that seeks damages, including lost wages, loss of professional reputation, and more.

Proving Wrongful Termination

To claim wrongful termination, you and your attorney must gather evidence that shows the following conditions:

• You had an employee-employer relationship with the company
• Your job was terminated by the employer
• Your employer used your protected status as a substantial factor in their decision to terminate your employment
• Your job loss has directly resulted in damages such as lost wages, unpaid benefits, and non-economic losses

Damages You Can Recover in a Wrongful Termination Claim

Any job loss can be devastating and upsetting, but there is an added element of frustration when your employer fires you illegally. You can seek damages based on how your life has been affected, including the following:

• Damage to your personal and professional reputations
• Depression and anxiety
• Emotional distress
• Hiring or reinstatement
• Lost earnings
• Lost future earnings
• Lost insurance and retirement benefits
• Mental anguish
• Sleep disturbances

There may be further damages you can request, depending on your particular situation. Your wrongful termination lawyer can assess your case and ensure you have a complete estimate of your losses.
