Hartford Wrongful Termination Attorney

Fired for Unjust Causes?

All employees in Connecticut have basic rights under federal and state employment laws. This includes the right to protection from wrongful termination. If you believe you have been wrongfully terminated from your job, we can help. At Cicchiello & Cicchiello, our Hartford wrongful termination attorneys can evaluate your case, discuss your legal options, and protect you from unlawful termination from your employer. Connecticut is an "at will" state. This means that employers have the right to fire or terminate an employee at anytime without providing a reason, as long as it is not illegal. However, even though Connecticut is an "at will state," when an employee is terminated from their job for reasons that are deemed illegal under Connecticut's employment laws, it is considered wrongful termination.

Under state laws, it is illegal for an employer to fire an employee or terminate their employment contract for the following reasons:

  • Gender
  • Race
  • Age
  • Religion
  • National Origin
  • Disability
  • Pregnancy
  • Sexual Orientation
  • The employee refused to violate the law at the employer's request
  • In retaliation for filing a whistle blower claim, discrimination claim, sexual harassment claim, wage enforcement claim, or workers' compensation claims
  • Taking leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act
  • Free speech or assembly
  • For any other reason that is not specified in the employee's contract (if a contract exists)
