Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file a discrimination claim in California?
Under FEHA, you have one year from the date of the discriminatory act to file a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department. For federal claims under Title VII, the deadline is 300 days. Missing these deadlines can bar your claim.
Can I be fired for no reason in California?
California is an at-will employment state, meaning you can be fired for any reason that is not illegal. However, you cannot be fired for discriminatory reasons, retaliation, or violating public policy. An employment lawyer can review your situation.
