Tampa Wrongful Termination Attorney
While under Florida's employment at will doctrine, an employer can fire an employee for any reason or no reason at all, wrongful termination of that employee can have serious legal consequences. The attorneys at Wenzel Fenton Cabassa, P.A., possess insight into both sides of wrongful termination cases. That point-of-view is especially beneficial for individuals out of a job and facing off against a powerful company.
Wrongful termination arises from other areas of employment law that include:
- Whistleblowing
- Workers' compensation retaliation claim filing
- Hostile work environments involving sexual harassment
- Allegations of age and race discrimination
- Unpaid overtime and wage claims
- Wage and hour disputes
St. Petersburg Employment Retaliation Attorney
According to both Florida law and the Federal Civil Rights Acts, retaliation or termination of an employee for reporting or filing a discrimination or sexual harassment claim is unlawful. Victims of adverse actions have the right to recover damages for reporting illegal activity — also known as whistleblowing — or refusing to participate in discriminatory conduct.
