Boston Wrongful Termination Lawyer
Waltham, Massachusetts, Unfair Dismissal Attorney
Since Massachusetts is an "at-will employment" state, instances where an employee is terminated can be confusing. Many wrongful termination claims may arise as the result of an employee's misunderstanding of the state employment laws. However, when the termination is based upon an illegal or unlawful employment action, there may be a legitimate claim of wrongful termination filed against the employer.
If you have been wrongfully terminated or believe you are the victim of an unfair dismissal, turn to our skilled employment law attorneys at the law firm of Russell & Associates LLC. Having handled numerous wrongful termination and other employment law cases, we are experienced and aggressive advocates for employee rights. Our firm can handle cases where the termination has already occurred or consult with clients who are in a situation where they may fear that termination may be coming due to a complaint that he or she had lodged.
Team Russell has handled numerous wrongful termination cases, including a recent case involving a woman who was fired after telling her superiors that she was pregnant.
Reasons to Suspect Wrongful Termination
Wrongful termination claims on the part of the employee may follow another claim of an employment law violation, such as:
- Wage and overtime disputes
- Employment discrimination, including pregnancy discrimination
- Sexual harassment
- Whistleblower
- Breach of contract by the employer
If you have been wrongly fired, it may be possible for us to file a lawsuit on your behalf, seeking compensation for the losses you have suffered as the result of the illegal termination. We do not take wrongful discharge cases lightly.

In addition to handling wrongful termination as a type of employer retaliation, we also represent clients who have experienced other forms of retaliation in the workplace, such as:
- Denial of a promotion
