Frequently asked questions

I think I'm being treated unfairly at work, what should I do?

Document instances of unfair treatment, including dates, times, locations, individuals involved, and details of what occurred. Report your concerns to your workplace’s human resources department, if available, and consider consulting an employment law attorney to understand your rights and options.

How can I tell if an employment law issue is serious?

An employment law issue is serious if it involves potential violations of federal or state laws, such as discrimination or harassment based on race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, or genetic information. Other serious issues include wage and hour disputes, wrongful termination, retaliation, and breach of contract.

How can an employment law attorney in Delaware help me?

An employment law attorney can guide you through your rights, help determine if you have a legal claim, and represent you in court if necessary. They assist with negotiating settlements, filing formal complaints, and navigating the complexities of employment litigation.

How much will I get by suing my employer if I’m being treated unfairly?

The potential compensation from a lawsuit depends on the specifics of your case, including the nature of the unfair treatment and the damages suffered (e.g., lost wages, emotional distress, or punitive damages). An attorney can provide an estimate based on your unique situation.

What are some common legal mistakes employees make?

• Failing to document incidents of unfair treatment or misconduct
• Not reporting incidents to a supervisor or HR

What is wrongful termination and how can I prove it?

Wrongful termination occurs when an employer fires an employee in violation of federal or state laws, an employment contract, or an implied promise of employment. To prove it, you generally need to demonstrate that the termination violated a specific law or contractual right and caused you harm.

Can an employer retaliate against me for asserting my rights?

No, it is illegal for an employer to retaliate against you for asserting your rights under employment laws, such as filing a discrimination complaint or whistleblowing. Retaliation may provide grounds for legal recourse.

How do employment laws protect me from harassment and discrimination at work?

Employment laws such as the Civil Rights Act, Americans with Disabilities Act, and Age Discrimination in Employment Act protect employees from harassment and discrimination based on protected characteristics. These laws also provide avenues for legal action if rights are violated.
