Title: How Much Is Your Wrongful Termination Lawsuit Worth? What Is The Average Compensation?


1
How Much Is Your Wrongful Termination Lawsuit
Worth? What Is The Average Compensation?
2
  • After you have been illegally fired by your
    employer in Los Angeles or elsewhere in
    California, it is wise to wonder how much you
    will receive in compensation if you file a
    wrongful termination claim.

3

Statistics shows that those who choose to be
legally represented by an experienced lawyer can
receive significantly more than 80,000 in an
out-of-court settlement or verdict after a trial.

4
Recoverable Damages In A Wrongful Termination Case
  • More often than not, victims of wrongful
    termination in California receive out-of-court
    settlements rather than court verdicts.
    Regardless of how you receive compensation for an
    illegal firing, these are the damages and losses
    you may be able to recover through a settlement
    or verdict
  • Lost wages (the wages you would have earned while
    being out of work after the illegal dismissal
    combined with the difference between the salary
    at your previous job and the salary at your new
    job if the new employer pays less)

5
Damages In A Termination Case
  • Lost employment benefits (including promotions,
    raises, bonuses, and premiums for health
    insurance)
  • The cost of finding a new job
  • Emotional distress suffered as a result of being
    wrongfully fired
  • Medical expenses associated with the termination
    as well as any changes in insurance coverage due
    to the firing.

6
  • Statistics show that the average wrongful
    termination settlement if you are represented by
    a lawyer in California, reaches nearly 50,000,
    while the average settlements for victims of
    illegal firing who represent themselves barely
    even reach 20,000.

7
How Being Represented By a Lawyer Affects Your
Compensation
  • Normally, you may not be eligible to receive a
    large compensation for wrongful termination if
    you managed to find a new job soon after the
    firing and the new employer pays the same wages
    or more. In that case, obtaining compensation may
    be challenging, especially if you are not
    represented by a Los Angeles wrongful termination
    attorney.
  • However, in no way does it mean that you should
    turn down good job offers after you have been
    fired in the hope of receiving a larger
    settlement. Under California wrongful termination
    laws, you are required to reduce your financial
    losses after an illegal dismissal as much as you
    can.
