Frequently Asked Questions
What is the time limit to file an employment lawsuit in Illinois?
In Illinois you generally have 300 days to file a discrimination charge with the Illinois Department of Human Rights or the EEOC. For breach of contract claims the statute of limitations is typically 10 years for written contracts but shorter for oral agreements. Always check with a lawyer because deadlines vary by claim type.
Can I be fired for no reason in Illinois?
Illinois is an at-will employment state meaning you can be fired for any reason or no reason unless it violates a law. Exceptions include firing based on discrimination retaliation for reporting illegal activity or violation of an employment contract. An employment lawyer can help determine if your termination was unlawful.
