How do I Handle a Wrongful Termination or Discrimination Claim?

If your business receives a wrongful termination or discrimination claim, the most important first step is to respond thoughtfully and preserve relevant information. This may include emails, personnel records, performance documentation, policies, messages, and other materials connected to the employee or the decision at issue.

Before making informal comments or taking further action, it is helpful to involve employment counsel early so the company can evaluate the facts, understand potential defenses, and respond in a strategic and professional way.
