What to know about Employment lawyers

Employment in the United States is presumed to be at will. Absent a contract, a union agreement or a statute that says otherwise, either side can end the relationship at any time. The Department of Labor puts it this way: where no discrimination or whistleblower protection is involved, a termination is subject only to any private contract between employer and employee or to a labour contract. So the question in most cases is not whether a firing was fair, but whether it broke a specific law.
