Hewlett Packard Wrongful Termination Attorney

Getting fired from your place of employment can often be one of the most stressful periods of one’s life. Employees are fired by the truckloads every day in California, but that does not mean employers should get away with prejudicial behavior. Although California is an at-will employment state, which means you do not have to be given a reason for your termination from HP, there are exceptions to this general rule. Hewlett Packard, with locations and products all throughout California, is no stranger to wrongful termination. However, it is important to have a Hewlett Packard wrongful termination attorney by your side to advocate your rights.

There are situations where it is illegal for employers to terminate their employee’s job without reason. The worker cannot be fired for age, military status, race, pregnancy, religion, national origin, color, disability, or for reporting illegal behavior. If you feel like you were terminated for any of these characteristics, you may be entitled to compensation for lost wages, back pay, front pay, pain and suffering, and even punishment damages.

If an employee gives notice of a violation of state or federal law, reports deceitful conduct, or reports discrimination or sexual harassment at work, they CANNOT be retaliated against.

An employer cannot retaliate against employees for enjoying a right he or she has under law. For example, the Family and Medical Leave Act gives workers protected leave to take care of their own disability or that of a family member. An employer cannot terminate an employee for requesting or taking this leave.

Unfortunately, employees who have been wrongfully terminated usually suffer severe consequences to their health and financial well-being. An experienced Hewlett Packard wrongful termination attorney can assist you in recovering damages:

• Payment for lost wages and benefits,
• Economic compensation for pain and suffering,
• Payments for lost future earnings,
• Punishment damages against their employer
• Attorneys’ fees and costs.

Wrongfully terminated employees should not be discouraged by their employers from speaking up and fighting wrongful termination. Speak to Miracle Mile Law Group for more information regarding how you can receive reimbursement for your damages.
