Legal Question in Employment Law in Illinois
Wrongful termination
My husband's employment of 25 years was recently terminated due to ''restructuring''. No severance was offered. Is there any recourse?

Re: Wrongful termination
Your husband may have recourse depending on the circumstances. 1. Was the termination based on discrimation, such as age, race, or disability; 2. Was the termination in violation of a company policy or procedure as set forth in an employee manual; 3. Were there accrued benefits that were not properly provided? These and other factors may determine the merits of a claim your husband may wish to consider.
