I believe I was fired due to my pregnancy. They obviously fired me for different reason that I find not justifialble. I am in talks with the EEOC for a claim against my former employer and have made a compensation amount to be presented to them for acceptance/denial/counter offer. I am expected to have a tele-conference with my mediator and previous employer to settle on an amount. Should I have a lawyer present when this conference is done? I feel uncomfortable having a conference without legal advice.

I would have talked to a lawyer first to see if the claim is relevant or even worth presenting.

particular, discover an lawyer who makes a speciality of hard artwork regulation. being pregnant discrimination is an quite complicated concern and you desire to make sure which you're represented. additionally, the mere reality which you have your lawyer cutting-edge could motivate the former company to settle quickly.

Please get a lawyer--for some strange reason, people tend to want to screw around with you less when you have a lawyer present!!

Guess what! They can fire you for any reason whatsoever, or for no reason at all.
