  • Understanding The Damages
  • People are normally being terminated for the
    wrong reasons, such as
  • Discrimination
  • Retaliation
  • Premature end of the contract
  • Cut of wages
  • Whistleblowing

4
  • There are several types of damages you can get
    compensated for

5
  • Lost Wages

From the moment you were terminated for the wrong
reasons, you started losing wages. Lost wages are
considered based on the average wages that you
were supposed to receive if still working.
Normally, you will not be compensated for all of
your lost wages (usually it is around 60 to 80
percent). But, getting anything is much better
than getting nothing.
6
  • Losing Benefits

Loss of pension or 401k plans
Loss of medical
Loss of dental insurance
Loss of stock options
Loss of profit sharing
7
  • Pain and Suffering

It is not always a safe bet, but in some cases,
you can ask the jury to award you damages for
everything you have endured emotionally since the
day you got terminated. If enough reasonable
evidence is provided, you may just get these
damages added to your total settlement. It never
hurts to ask.
8
  • Attorney Fees

In some cases, you may be awarded attorneys
fees. However, this is rarely the case as most
attorneys work on a contingency fee basis.
Consult with an attorney to learn more about it.
