A termination is one of the highest-risk decisions a California employer makes—and often the first thing a plaintiff's attorney scrutinizes when a claim comes in. Performance issues, misconduct, protected leave, final pay deadlines, and severance terms all have to be weighed before the decision is final, and a misstep on any one of them can turn a routine separation into a wrongful termination, discrimination, or retaliation claim.
Join Anthony Zaller and Anne McWilliams for a practical Masterclass designed to help California employers make sound, defensible termination decisions while minimizing litigation exposure.
