What are executive level wrongful terminations?
Executive Level wrongful termination claims are a unique form of employment terminations. Employment law in California is complex, confusing and constantly evolving — touching on the most fundamental and emotionally charged issues of fairness and honesty. A loss of employment often has devastating effects, financially, emotionally and psychologically for the individual and his or her family….regardless of how much money he or she was earning. It is equally true that an executive level wrongful termination can be extremely costly to a Company.
I thought California was an “at will” employment state?
Many clients and potential clients on the employee side mistakenly believe that they have no valid claims because California is an “at will” state. Similarly, many clients and potential clients on the Company side mistakenly believe that they are litigation proof because California is an “at will” state. Both are wrong.
