An employer may try to retaliate against the employee fro brining an employment claim against the company, typically in the form of a demotion, being fired, suffer loss of salary levels upon return to work, retaliatory discipline, or other types of employer retaliation. When we take your case, the employer will be made fully aware that any form of retaliation is unlawful and further litigation may follow if they try to retaliate against you. This includes sudden poor work performance evaluations starting from the time of your original case being filed.

If the employer does retaliate or terminate you, and your work history shows the actions of your current employer were sudden and unwarranted based upon your work history and / or previous evaluations, depending upon the circumstances, a retaliation, hostile work environment, or wrongful termination claim may also be brought against the employer on your behalf.
