Frequently Asked Questions

What is the time limit to file an employment lawsuit in Maryland?
For discrimination claims under the Maryland Fair Employment Practices Act, you generally have 300 days to file with the Maryland Commission on Civil Rights. For wage claims under Maryland law, the statute of limitations is typically three years. Deadlines vary by claim type so you should consult a lawyer quickly.
Can I be fired for no reason in Maryland?
Maryland is an at-will employment state, meaning an employer can fire you for any reason not prohibited by law. However, you cannot be fired for discriminatory reasons such as race, gender, or religion, or for retaliation after reporting a violation. If you believe your termination was illegal, an employment lawyer can review your case.
What should I bring to a meeting with an employment lawyer in Lanham?
Bring any documents related to your employment, such as your employment contract, pay stubs, emails, performance reviews, and any written warnings. Also bring a timeline of events and a list of witnesses. This helps the lawyer evaluate your case efficiently.
