Your boss may make it sound like they are the masters of your destiny, but there are limits on when your employer can fire you. Pushing past those limits is a violation of your rights and gives you cause to contact a wrongful termination lawyer Los Angeles. If you are wondering whether your last firing was legal, here are some of the most common types of wrongful termination.

## Items

### 1. [Breach of contract](https://listium.com/@amfllp/63263/top-3-most-common-types-of-wrongful-termination/0/breach-of-contract)

Item ID: `0`

- Notes: Needless to say, if your contract says you’ll be employed for 2 years, there are consequences to firing you before that time is due. You can go over the contract yourself to see if the circumstances of you being fired were above board, or you can get a free consultation from a law firm like \[https://www.amfllp.com/practice-areas/wrongful-termination/\](https://www.amfllp.com/practice-areas/wrongful-termination/).

### 2. [Employee discrimination](https://listium.com/@amfllp/63263/top-3-most-common-types-of-wrongful-termination/1/employee-discrimination)

Item ID: `1`

- Notes: Even if your contract stipulates that your employer can fire you at will, they still are not allowed to fire you based solely on your race or gender. You also can’t be fired because of your religion, disability, marital status, for requesting family leave, for becoming pregnant, and more. If you believe you have been fired due to any of these factors, you may have grounds for a wrongful termination suit.

### 3. [Whistleblower punishment](https://listium.com/@amfllp/63263/top-3-most-common-types-of-wrongful-termination/2/whistleblower-punishment)

Item ID: `2`

- Notes: Companies aren’t allowed to fire you in retaliation for you reporting criminal activity to the authorities. Meaning you can’t be punished for blowing the whistle.
