Employers are legally prohibited from adverse retaliatory actions against employees who make protected actions in good faith. Filing an EEOC or DFEH claim for discrimination or harassment qualifies as a protected action, and an employer may not fire an employee who files such a claim. Therefore, if you file your EEOC or DFEH claim and are subsequently fired, your Los Angeles discrimination attorney can not only help you hold them accountable for discrimination but also wrongful termination.
