What can I do if I feel I have been unlawfully terminated from a job?

Question

What can I do if I feel I have been unlawfully terminated from a job?



Answer

Under Maryland law an employer can terminate an at-will employee for any reason unless it is a specifically prohibited reason (like age or race discrimination). If the termination was illegal an employee has the option of pursuing a complaint through the government (EEOC) or through a private action. One can contact an employment lawyer for a review of a particular case.
