Pre-Termination Counseling

Detroit Pre-Termination Counseling Lawyer

There are many times when an employee senses that something is going wrong at work - or that an employer is up to no good. From being left out of important internal communications to having responsibilities mysteriously reassigned, typical workers and high-ranking executives should be aware of these red flags, which may indicate that something is amiss. The employment law attorneys at Sterling Attorneys at Law can help employees avoid trouble through effective pre-termination counseling.

Big companies have teams of lawyers guiding supervisors, managers and human resources staff on how to terminate an employee, often by "papering" an employee's file to support their claims. Our skilled employment law attorneys will act as your legal counsel, strategically guiding you on how to fend off the claims your employer may be using to justify your termination.

Signs that negative employment action may be imminent include such behaviors as:

• You are no longer invited to essential meetings
• You are left out of important phone conversations
• You don't get a raise that you should have been received
• Your key, long-time customers are reassigned to younger employees
• Your expense accounts - never questioned before - are rejected

If you believe you might be terminated due to discrimination, for being a whistleblower or for some other protected reason, don't take it without a fight. Protect yourself by talking with our pre-termination counseling attorneys before you are fired and your employer gets the upper hand. We will meet with you in a strategic meeting to discuss ways to counter your employer's actions and help fight the charges against you. In the past, we have saved people from unjust dismissals, but in the event we cannot save your job, we can work to protect your best interests through negotiation or a lawsuit if necessary.
