Wrongful Termination

Representing Employees and Employers across New England
While most employees are employed on an at-will basis and can be fired for no reason, employers are vulnerable to allegations of wrongful termination if they fire an employee for the wrong reason.

Employees cannot be fired or terminated for reasons of discrimination based on disability, pregnancy, age, race, gender, sexual orientation or political association. They cannot be fired for reporting illegal actions by the company or for complaining or seeking legal redress if they have been discriminated against or subjected to harassment.

Our firm represents employees in wrongful termination claims, and we defend employers who have been charged with wrongful termination. We have handled a number of high-profile, complex employment law cases that received extensive media coverage. Clients can rely not only on our legal ability to resolve their claim in court, but also our skillful dealing with the media.
