How Do I Know If I’ve Been Wrongfully Terminated?
When in doubt, always contact us so we can help figure out whether or not you have a case.
When your rights are violated in the workplace, it may leave you feeling angry, confused, and overwhelmed, and making the choice to file an employment lawsuit can be scary.
This position can also be isolating, especially if you are still employed by the company or your case involves a supervisor. We can help cut through the feelings of confusion and assess your legal options without putting you at risk for retaliation. We know that employment lawsuits can come from any employment circumstance, whether you’re working for a Fortune 500 company, small business, or even a nonprofit.
Discrimination Statistics
Every year, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing receives approximately 23,000 complaints from members of the public who have been the victims of civil rights violations. Over 86% of those complaints (19,000+) involved employment discrimination. The unfortunate consequence of these regular complaints is that companies and their legal teams have gotten very good at avoiding responsibility for their actions. Our experience gives us great insight into the tactics often used by large corporations, and your employment attorney will work day and night to ensure that you have the advantage. Our #1 goal is representing your best interests while protecting you from further suffering and retaliation.
Lawsuit Challenges
Employment cases often present unique challenges that require an experienced employment attorney. Always treat claims with a strong sense of urgency due to the varying statute of limitations that exist. For example, you must file wrongful termination charges within 300 days of the termination in question. On the other hand, most unpaid wage cases fall under the three-year statute of limitations. Although the process can be confusing, many people who have filed employment lawsuits find that the experience helps to validate their experience and starts a journey of healing. We know that you have a long road ahead of you, and we’ll be with you every step of the way.
In the legal system, there are no guarantees and no quick fixes. Many people have a strong basis for an employment case but avoid filing because of the perceived complexity and time investment. We urge you to reach out to an employment attorney for a consultation. You have the right to feel secure and protected in the workplace.

Finally I was referred Blackstone and they really put things into perspective for me and were reasonable in the expectation they set.

I was injured and had back pain and this made working extremely difficult. I desperately needed a chiropractor and the insurance company of the person who hit me was trying to give me the bare minimum. Jonathan was a so awesome, him and his entire team were so caring, spent time updating me every step. He was able to help me recover all my losses. Thank you so much. Best car accident lawyer ever.
