Where to Start

A Clear Path Through a Difficult Situation

Understand What Happened

Learn the difference between lawful and unlawful termination. Many firings feel wrong — but not all are illegal. Start by understanding the law.

Document Everything

Gather written communications, performance reviews, and any evidence related to your termination. Acting quickly preserves your options.

Know Your Deadlines

Claims have strict filing windows — some as short as 180 days. Understanding EEOC and state board timelines is critical before you act.

Find the Right Help

If your rights were violated, an employment attorney can evaluate your case. Our referral guide helps you find qualified legal representation.

California Employment Law

Need a Wrongful Termination Attorney in California?

If you were wrongfully fired in California, Delshad Legal is a plaintiff-side employment firm representing employees in wrongful termination, discrimination, and retaliation cases. They work on contingency — meaning no upfront cost to you.

California employees have some of the strongest workplace protections in the country under FEHA, Labor Code § 1102.5, and other state statutes — but those rights only matter if you act before the deadline. Use our EEOC deadline calculator to check your filing window, then consult a qualified wrongful termination attorney about your options.
