Whistleblowers may be blowing the whistle about unsafe work practices, complaints about unpaid wages, or something illegal their employer is doing. Wrongful termination based upon discrimination involves employment terminations motivated by a protected characteristic such as age, disability, FMLA rights, medical conditions, national origin, pregnancy, race, or sex. Employees who win wrongful termination cases based upon discrimination are supposed to have the employer pay their attorney fees if they win at an actual arbitration or trial. Employment harassment cases are either usually sexual harassment, or a [workers compensation stress issue](https://employeelawca.com/work-stress-lawyer/). However, our firm has successfully recovered sums such as $150,000 for mere racial harassment in settlement. The line between the type of harassment an employee is expected to endure in the normal workplace is something an employee should consult a work lawyer about. Legal standards are not necessarily common sense. **CALL (323) 525-1600 TO CONSULT A WORK LAWYER** ## EMPLOYEE ATTORNEYS If you hire our law firm you are hiring multiple employee attorneys.
