Many people in the Beverly Hills area often confuse at-will employment with illegal terminations. One question that may cross your mind when your employer fires you is if your firing was a wrongful one. You may have been a great worker, followed all the rules and had a clean disciplinary file. But your employer decided to let you go and now you are upset. Just because you do not agree with their decisions does not mean you cannot sue them.
