  • Don’t Let Fear of Rejection Hold You Back from Exploring an Employment Lawsuit

    Not every employment law case will yield a sizable settlement or even be accepted by an attorney. But fear of rejection shouldn’t keep you from speaking to a lawyer about your employer’s actions and the probability of a viable case. In this latest episode of the Justice at Work podcast, Adian Miller discusses seven reasons why a case might be rejected and what you can learn from each, as well as a few alternatives for obtaining employer accountability and possible restitution. Among the issues Adian reviews are the difference between unfair and unlawful acts, statutes of limitations in employment law (some as short as 180 days), and the importance of knowing the revocation period of any severance agreement.
