Goldshaw, a Philadelphia attorney who has been practicing employment and discrimination law for more than 15 years.<\/p>\n Every such case is different, Goldshaw says, and must be reviewed and investigated thoroughly to determine what really happened and how to proceed through the legal system. That means interviews are conducted with the client to learn all about how their employment was terminated and about what reasons were given for the discharge.<\/p>\n In the end, though, most job hiring is done on an “at will” basis, which means you are hired for as long as your employer wants you work there.\u00a0 Usually, employers can hire or fire you at will for any reason, unless you can show that their action breaks the law, Goldshaw says. Depending on what the reasons are for the discharge you may or may not have a case, he says.<\/p>\n Among the reasons that can be cited for illegal firings are those based on discrimination in connection to your age, race, sex, religion, disabilities or your national origin, he says.<\/p>\n “Discrimination can be a hard thing to prove,” Goldshaw says. “Employers are aware that it is against the law and most people who break the law don’t do it openly. It’s potentially a very complicated area of the law.”<\/p>\n Goldshaw, a partner at Salmanson Goldshaw, P.C., in Philadelphia, received his law degree from the University of Pennsylvania and his bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Michigan.<\/p>\n More information about wrongful discharge, including 10 things to think about if you are contemplating suing an employer in connection with a firing or discrimination, can be found in an article on the subject by FindLaw.<\/p>\n Be sure to listen in to Court Radio at 7 a.m. Sunday to hear the whole discussion with co-hosts Dean Weitzman and David Rapoport and their special guest, Scott Goldshaw.<\/p>\n About Court Radio<\/em><\/p>\n Listeners can call in with their legal questions to<\/em> <\/em>800-539-1479<\/em> or they can email their questions to <\/em>AskDean@CourtRadio.com<\/a>.
