Defending Whistleblowers from Retaliatory Termination

Employers must be very careful with how they treat employees who make good-faith complaints of discrimination or the terms or conditions of their employment. Adverse action against such employees may result in a retaliation claim. If you have any question about your right of recourse against an employer who terminated your employment for unlawful reasons, or if you’re an employer who wants to avoid the possibility of a retaliation claim, contact Thatcher Zavaro & Mani in Greenbelt, Maryland.
