A wrongful termination case is a lawsuit based on an employer inappropriately discharging a worker. The victim brings a claim to court and states what their damages are. Compensation may include:
Lost pay
Benefits
Bonuses
Any other form of compensation or benefit of employment
Pain and suffering (in some cases)
The worker must prove their case that they are the victim of wrongful termination. They must also itemize their damages. Pain and suffering may be available when the employer's actions result in verified mental health damages.
