California is a right to work
state, although it is more accurate to say we live in a right to be fired
state. An employer can fire an at-will employee for almost any reason, and an employee's only recourse may be to file for unemployment insurance benefits. However, employers cannot fire someone for being a woman, or belonging to the Jewish faith, or being born in Mexico. People also cannot be fired for refusing to break the law. If you believe you have been wrongfully terminated, think about what documents and witnesses would support your case, and then please call us.
