You’re Fired

Don't Leave Money on the Table

When terminated, your former employer may offer a severance package - a lump sum payment for leaving. While tempting, signing it risks leaving substantial money on the table.
By accepting severance, you permanently give up your ability to take legal action - even for:
* Wrongful termination
* Discrimination
* Unpaid wages/benefits
* Whistleblower retaliation
The severance amount is often much less than what you're owed for such violations.
Get it reviewed to protect your rights.

The lawsuit says not paying severance and bills is part of a pattern for Musk. Representatives for Musk and San Francisco-based X did not immediately respond to messages for comment.

We are proud to represent SEPTA employees and others who are wrongfully fired from their jobs. Unions must do more to protect their members from sexual harassment and discrimination. Under no circumstances should any employer be able to fire someone just because they complain about being harassed on the job. A big thank you to NAACP for your efforts. Together we can make work a better place. Law Offices of Eric A. Shore 1-800-CANT-WORK.

After applying to SEPTA for nearly a dozen years, William Harris Jr. said he finally was hired and began training as a locomotive engineer this year.

Yesterday a potential client called me. He was fired because of his religious beliefs. His employer actually told him that he needed to choose between his god and his job. When you get fired, we get hired ....to fight for you! 1-800-CANT-WORK

I expect newly appointed judges to be much less claimant friendly. As a result of President Trump’s order, new judges no longer have to be knowledgeable about the SSD system. They may just be friends of the President. Sad.

Yesterday, President Trump issued an executive order to change how Administrative Law Judges (ALJs) are hired. The Social Security Administration has more ALJs than any other federal agency. They hear and decide disability cases every day.

The U.S. Supreme Court declined Monday to hear the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund's challenge to an Eleventh Circuit ruling that employers don't violate federal race discrimination laws when they treat workers differently based on "mutable" characteristics, such as dreadl...
