Employment Law Cases We Handle

Wrongful Termination

Mississippi is an at-will employment state, but that does not mean employers can fire workers for illegal reasons. You may have a claim if you were terminated because of your race, sex, age, disability, pregnancy, religion, national origin, or in retaliation for asserting your rights.

Workplace Discrimination

State and federal law prohibit discrimination in hiring, pay, promotions, discipline, and termination. We help employees pursue claims under laws such as:

  • Title VII of the Civil Rights Act
  • Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
  • Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA)
  • Equal Pay Act

Harassment & Hostile Work Environment

Unlawful harassment is more than rude behavior. If you are experiencing severe or pervasive harassment, especially based on a protected characteristic, you may have legal options.

Retaliation & Whistleblower Protection

It is illegal for employers to punish workers for engaging in protected activity, including:

  • Reporting discrimination or harassment
  • Filing a complaint
  • Requesting medical leave or accommodation
  • Reporting unlawful or unsafe conduct

Wage & Overtime Violations

Workers deserve to be paid correctly and on time. We assist employees with claims involving:

  • Unpaid overtime
  • Misclassification as exempt or as an independent contractor
  • Minimum wage violations
  • Off-the-clock work

Family & Medical Leave (FMLA)

If you were denied protected leave or punished for taking medical leave, you may be entitled to relief.

Employment Contracts & Severance

We review and negotiate employment agreements, non-compete agreements, and severance packages to protect your long-term interests.

Your Rights as an Employee

Employees in Mississippi may be protected by federal and state laws even when they are at-will. Depending on your situation, your rights may include:

  • Protection from discrimination and harassment
  • The right to reasonable accommodation for disabilities and pregnancy
  • Protection from retaliation
  • The right to fair wages and overtime
  • The right to medical leave under qualifying circumstances

If you believe those rights have been violated, it is important to get legal advice as soon as possible. Many employment law claims have strict filing deadlines.

What To Do If You Think Your Employer Broke the Law

  1. Document what happened (emails, write-ups, text messages, screenshots, pay records).
  2. Do not quit without speaking to a lawyer, if possible.
  3. Consult an employment attorney to understand your rights and options.
  4. Be mindful of deadlines—waiting too long may prevent you from filing a claim.
