Re: Fiered while unter Dr. CARE
If your former employer who fired you was a company operating in Virginia which is an employment at will jurisdiction, unless your termination violated federal antidiscrimination laws(race, ethnic origin, sex, age, etc.), it's unlikely that you would have a viable claim against the employer.
