Frequently asked questions

What qualifies as wrongful termination in California?

A wrongful termination analysis often looks at whether the termination was connected to retaliation, discrimination, protected leave, public policy, contract rights, or another legally protected issue.

What evidence helps prove retaliation?

Useful evidence may include a clear timeline, complaints, emails, text messages, witness names, performance records, discipline, leave paperwork, and proof that decision-makers knew about the protected activity.

What documents should an employee preserve?

Preserve offer letters, handbooks, pay records, schedules, reviews, discipline, emails, texts, complaints, leave paperwork, medical restriction communications, severance documents, and names of potential witnesses.

Can employment disputes resolve without trial?

Often, yes. Negotiation, mediation, severance agreements, settlement agreements, policy changes, or payment terms may resolve a dispute before trial. Some matters still require litigation to preserve rights.
