Re: Wrongful Termanation

Not unless there are other factors that you're leaving out? Did you have a contract? Are you a member of a union? Did the Employer violate standard in-house termination procedures? Was there a discriminatory motive? Was the firing retaliatory?

Should you like to discuss this or any other legal matter, you can call my office to schedule an appointment for a consultation or in the alternative, I can be reached for on-phone low-cost legal consultation at 1-800-275-5336 x0233699.

No. Did you have a contract specifying "term" of employment?

NY is an at will employment state. Absent a contract to the contrary, and without discimination for age, race, religion, disability, gender etc...you can be terminated for any reason.
