Reading: I was abruptly let go from my job without warning or the promised one month’s salary. My employer had misrepresented the role to me from the start, promising a managerial position that never materialized. The contract, while stating it was for three years, allowed them to dismiss me at any time with just a month’s notice and payment. Conversely, if I left, I would have to forfeit six months’ salary. There was no team, no support, and the company brought back the person I replaced after only five months. Now my career is in jeopardy. What legal options do I have to pursue justice?

You can file a claim for wrongful termination and breach of contract, arguing that the employer misrepresented the role and failed to provide the promised managerial position. You can also challenge the contract’s unfair termination clause and claim compensation for lost wages and damages to your career.
