Our adept attorneys specializing in sex and gender discrimination will meticulously evaluate your situation and apprise you of your legal entitlements and choices.

Recognizing the Signs of Wrongful Termination

It’s evident when an employer explicitly states the reason for your dismissal as your gender – that’s a clear-cut case of wrongful termination. But most instances aren’t that transparent. They are usually characterized by a recurring yet covert pattern of discrimination influencing employment choices. Reflect on the following:

Did you often encounter or hear derogatory comments about a particular gender that went unaddressed?
Were there instances when your gender was brought up in discussions about your professional roles?
Have you witnessed gender bias in hiring or promotions?
Did your termination feel like part of a trend targeting a specific gender?

Answering affirmatively to any of these could signify that your dismissal was rooted in gender discrimination.

Potential Outcomes of a Wrongful Termination Suit

In some instances, the primary objective behind a wrongful termination lawsuit is the restoration of the victim’s previous job role and benefits. However, the thought of going back to a prejudiced environment might be unsettling if your termination was based on gender discrimination. Thankfully, your claim can also seek financial restitution. This can cover damages for lost wages, forfeited benefits, emotional anguish, legal costs, and even punitive damages that serve to reprimand the employer for their biased conduct.

At PLBH, we pride ourselves on the bespoke approach we adopt with each client. By gaining a deep understanding of your unique situation and objectives, we tailor our strategies to advocate for the best possible outcome. Many such claims can find a resolution via mediation or arbitration with the concerned employer. Yet, if the need arises to escalate the matter to court to ensure justice, our team is fully equipped and willing. With a commendable litigation history, we commit to articulating a robust case in your favor.
