Legal Question in Employment Law in New York
Labor
I've working for a company for 4
years as Regional Publisher, i was
hurt on the job in July 07, then again
at the end of Jan early Feb 08. I was
fired on 2/22/07 after telling my
supervisor that i was going in for
another surgery on 2/27/08. They
offered me a 6 week severance pkg
which I refused, and now I went to
get medication found out my health
insr was canceled. I have NOT
received a Cobra offer or termination
package.. I am seeking council and
have met with several attorney's..
can you give me any advice.. My life
has gone from an amazing athlete to
crutches and severe back pain.. as
well EVERY one of my clients have
offered to testify for me and have
written me letters on their own.
Needless to say they were as shocked
as I .

Re: Labor
I am so sorry to hear of the ordeal you are going through. While there may be other reasons your employer may offer for terminating you, it certainly appears suspicious under the circumstances. Do not sign anything, including a severance package, without having an attorney review it for you. If you would like to discuss your case with me, I would be more than happy to give you a free consultation.
