Its horrible when you get fired. Now you have to
find a whole new source of income without any
notice ahead of time. Its even worse when you
know it wasnt fair. You may have a case for
wrongful termination and not even know it. Most

How Fair Employment and Housing Act Defined
Termination
There are several other examples where your
termination can be deemed unlawful. It is usually
a reason under the Californias Fair Employment
and Housing Act (FEHA). FEHA inhibits
discrimination based on religion, race, national
origin, age (40 years and above), , sex or sexual
orientation, marital status, mental or physical
disability, or pregnancy and conditions that come
with pregnancy.

At Will Employment
It is a common misconception that if you are an
at-will employee then you cannot claim wrongful
termination. At-will employment means that the
employee doesnt have a contract with the
employer and they can be terminated by the will
of the company at any time. This is not an excuse
or a pass for a company to commit wrongful
termination.

Whistle Blowing
Youve probably heard this term before. When you
whistle blow this means that you report illegal
or an unsafe working environment to the employer,
law enforcement, or a government agency. Laws
that protect whistleblowers protects you when you
try to make a complaint directly to the employer
and you dont have to file a complaint with the
government.
