Employment Law

South Texas Employment Litigation Attorneys

Employment in Texas is "at-will," which means that an employee may quit a job at anytime without cause or prior notice, and an employer can terminate an employee at any time. At-will employment, however, does not mean that an employer can violate your civil rights or federal worker's rights under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Engaging in illegal practices such as discrimination, harassment, or ignoring wage and hour regulations may result in the employee filing a lawsuit for significant money damages.

Fibich, Hampton & Leebron, LLP provides experienced employment law representation. If you are the victim of wrongful termination or workplace discrimination and harassment that caused you to quit your job, we are ready to help. The simple fact is that some employers are more worried about their bottom line than they are about honoring your rights.

We help protect your rights against employer practices such as:

• Wrongful termination
• Sexual harassment
• Age discrimination
• Sex discrimination
• Race discrimination

Even if you quit, you may still have an employment law case

If your employer falsely represented the job during the hiring process, and is now threatening to fire you for failing to meet performance standards, you may have a wrongful termination case. If your employer is retaliating against you after you filed a complaint about sexual harassment, you may have a legitimate claim for violating whistleblower laws. If your work environment or job tasks have suddenly become unbearable, your employer may be hoping that you quit. This is referred to as "constructive discharge" and it is just as illegal as a wrongful termination.

Let us help you fight for what is fair. Fibich, Hampton & Leebron handles litigation arising from such wrongful termination. Contact our offices in Houston, Texas, to talk with a lawyer in our employment law group today.
