First, you want to obtain unemployment benefits if you are entitled to them. Appeal any adverse ruling. I have represented employees before at such hearings. As for suing your employer, I doubt you would have a claim based solely on what it told unemployment, but you may have a claim based on wrongful termination. I would need to discuss the facts with you. Feel free to contact me at [email protected]
