Legal Question in Employment Law in Nevada

Generally, because Nevada is an at-will employment state, an employer may terminate an employee for any reason or no reason at all, assuming that the employer has not based the decision to terminate on certain classifications (e.g., race, color, national origin, age, sext, religion, disability, etc.) and also assuming that the employee was not protected by certain whistleblower laws (e.g., reporting to OSHA, the SEC, etc.). However, where an employee has not engaged in misconduct in connection with his or her termination from employment, the employee may be entitled to unemployment benefits. Perhaps you should contact the Nevada State Bar and request a discounted consultation with an attorney who regularly practices in the area of wrongful termination. The consultation cost is $45.
