What is At Will Employment in Florida?

Wrongful discharge cases can be complex and challenging in Florida, since Florida is an at-will employment state. At-will employment means employers may hire or fire employees for virtually any or no reason. However, there are still laws that prohibit employment actions such as wrongful termination.

Both federal and state laws offer protection in cases involving discrimination, sexual harassment, missing wages, whistleblowing, and the FMLA. Employees also cannot be fired in violation of public policy. Additionally, certain workers are except from at-will employment if they agreed to an employment contract with stipulations regarding termination.

Victims of unlawful termination do have options, including filing a claim and pursing a lawsuit. At Sconzo Law Office, P.A., our attorneys can look over the specifics of your claim for wrongful termination. We can then develop a legal strategy to best resolve your situation.
