How Much Is My Spokane Workplace Retaliation Claim Worth?
The value of your claims settlement depends on several factors unique to your situation. These may include lost wages and benefits if you experienced wrongful termination, emotional distress damages if you endured a hostile work environment and additional compensation if you faced serious employment discrimination.
In some cases, punitive damages, which are meant to punish especially egregious employer conduct, may also be possible. Each case is different, but I will work tirelessly to pursue the maximum compensation you deserve for the retaliation you have experienced.
What Is The Timeline For Filing A Workplace Retaliation Claim?
In Washington state, timing is crucial when filing workplace retaliation claims. Most claims must be filed within 180 days of the retaliatory action, though some deadlines may be longer depending on the type of claim.
If you were fired, demoted or faced other adverse actions after reporting safety violations or filing a workers’ compensation claim, documenting the timeline of events is critical. The sooner you reach out for legal help, the better positioned you will be to protect your rights and build a strong case.
