Are You a Government Employee Who Has Been Wrongfully Terminated? Law Offices of Robert Crawford Can Help

If you are a federal, state or local government employee who has been terminated, you may have the right to appeal if the law was violated in the decision-making process. Those who are employed by the government have significantly different rights and protections than employees in the private sector.

Although legal protections and guidelines differ from state to state and locally, the same is generally true across state lines.

If you believe you have been wrongfully terminated, the experienced lawyers at Law Offices of Robert Crawford can prepare and present an appeal tailored to the specifics of your situation. Retaining a legal representative as soon as possible is important. Quite often, there are deadlines associated with such appeals – a delay in the process or a failure to meet the deadline for filing could endanger the success of your appeal.
