FAQ

Wrongful termination cases can be difficult to win since the employee must provide evidence that their discharge was unlawful. Although assembling solid proof and hiring legal counsel improves the odds, employers frequently contend the dismissal was justified due to performance-related issues.

Notice of Termination: While not always legally required, it's a best practice for employers in Nevada to provide a written notice of termination or separation to the employee.

“The short answer is yes: In many to most circumstances, employees can be fired without notice,” says Sonya Smallets, an employment law attorney at Minnis & Smallets in San Francisco, California.

Additionally, wrongful termination may arise from discrimination or retaliation. Nevada, like other states, has anti-discrimination laws in place to protect employees from being fired based on protected characteristics, such as race, gender, religion, disability, age, or national origin.

An employee may file a complaint with the Office of the Labor Commissioner if they believe that a Nevada Revised Statute or Administrative Code is being violated by an employer. The difference between a Complaint and a Wage Claim is that usually when a Complaint is filed, there are no wages due.

The employee must first present evidence that he is a member of a protected class, he was qualified for the position he held, he suffered an adverse employment action such as being fired, and that he was replaced with another worker who is not a member of that protected class.

Title VII was passed to ensure you would be considered for jobs not on the basis of the color of their skin, religion, gender or their national origin. Rather, you should be selected on the basis of the abilities necessary to perform a job.

Sending emails with racist jokes to coworkers. Insisting that all employees always speak English, even if it has nothing to do with their job tasks. Indian clients refusing to work with an Indian employee because that employee is too dark. Firing an employee because he reported discrimination to the EEOC.

In these instances, you may be able to prove discrimination occurred against you if you can establish a verifiable pattern of various types of harassment happening on the job. These can include racist comments, sexually suggestive comments or emails directed at you, or other acts that could be deemed as harassment.
