Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is dismissed in violation of legal protections, such as discrimination laws or contractual agreements.
Examples include being fired due to race, gender, retaliation, or refusal to engage in illegal activities. Each case requires individual evaluation.
Time limits for filing wrongful termination claims vary by the type of claim and jurisdiction, often ranging from months to a few years after the termination.
Prompt consultation with an attorney is crucial to ensure timely filing and preservation of your legal rights.
Missouri is typically an at-will employment state, meaning employers may terminate employees for any reason that is not illegal, such as discrimination or retaliation.
However, exceptions exist when firings violate federal or state laws or breach specific contracts.
Recovered damages may include lost wages, emotional distress, reinstatement, and sometimes punitive damages depending on case specifics.
An experienced attorney can help determine appropriate remedies based on your situation.
Wrongful termination typically means employment has ended, so continuing work at the same job is not possible unless reinstated by legal action.
