Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file a discrimination claim in Massachusetts?
Under Massachusetts law, you generally have 300 days from the discriminatory act to file a charge with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD). For federal claims under Title VII, the deadline is also 300 days. Missing this deadline can bar your claim.
Can I be fired without cause in Massachusetts?
Massachusetts is an at-will employment state, meaning an employer can fire you for any reason not prohibited by law. However, you cannot be fired for discriminatory reasons, retaliation, or in violation of a contract. An employment lawyer can review your situation to see if an exception applies.
What damages can I recover in a Massachusetts wage claim?
Under the Massachusetts Wage Act, you can recover unpaid wages plus mandatory treble (triple) damages and attorney fees. For example, if an employer owes you $5,000 in unpaid overtime, you may be entitled to $15,000 plus legal costs. This law applies to most private employers in Falmouth.
