Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a discrimination claim in California?
In California, you generally have three years from the date of the discriminatory act to file a claim under FEHA. For federal claims under Title VII, the deadline is 300 days. You should consult a lawyer promptly to avoid missing these deadlines.
Can my employer fire me for complaining about unsafe working conditions?
No. California law prohibits retaliation against employees who report safety violations or file workers compensation claims. If you are fired for complaining about unsafe conditions, you may have a wrongful termination claim under Labor Code section 1102.5.
Do I need a written contract to sue for unpaid wages in Escondido?
No. California law requires employers to pay all wages earned, even without a written contract. You can file a wage claim with the California Labor Commissioner for unpaid wages, overtime, or missed meal and rest breaks. The statute of limitations is generally three years.
