Top Wrongful Termination Lawyers NJ Defending Your Workplace Rights

Were you fired for reasons that feel unfair—or even illegal? In New Jersey, employment is “at-will,” but that doesn’t give employers the right to violate laws. If you were terminated due to discrimination, retaliation, or whistleblowing, our experienced Wrongful Termination Lawyers NJ are here to help.

At HS Law Group, we fight for clients who’ve lost their jobs under unlawful conditions. Whether you were dismissed after reporting harassment, requesting medical leave, or for refusing to engage in illegal acts, we’ll fight for compensation, reinstatement, and justice. We also represent clients with overlapping cases like employment litigation or civil rights violations.

What Counts as Wrongful Termination in New Jersey?

At H&S Law Group, we understand the emotional and financial burdens that come with such a loss. Our wrongful death attorneys will:

Retaliation for Reporting Harassment or Discrimination

If you were fired after speaking up, that’s illegal. We help you prove the link between your report and your termination.

Firing Due to Race, Gender, or Age

Discrimination-based termination violates both NJ and federal law. We build a strong case with clear evidence and timelines.

Termination After Requesting FMLA or Disability Leave

Your right to medical leave is protected. Employers cannot punish you for asserting it.

Whistleblower Retaliation

Fired for reporting unsafe practices or fraud? You may have a case under the Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA).

Termination After Reporting Wage Theft or Labor Violations

If you were terminated for speaking up about unpaid overtime or misclassification, we’ll hold your employer accountable.

Constructive Termination

Forced to resign due to a hostile work environment? That’s legally treated as termination—and you still have rights.
