Re: pregnancy
If your termination was truly a result of pregnancy, then it is a violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act and the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. You should consult an attorney to provide additional facts to determine if you have a viable cause of action. If you would like to contact my office, I would be pleased to speak with you.
