Getting therapy for the emotional damage from being unlawfully fired from a job almost two years ago.

There’s 3 months left in the statute of limitations. My therapist really thinks I should go after my former employer for this shit.

Idk if I should. I am employed at an amazing place rn and can’t really afford time off, but I also want justice for myself and anyone else who got the same treatment I did.

What do y’all think?

    Ask a lawyer.

    Your therapist gave you their honest and sober view and that should be worth something.

    If you consult a lawyer, they have to tell you the truth about what your chances are and shit and if they lie they can get into deep trouble. But they are the only ones to know your chances and the damages you’d get as a payout, and thus they are the exact ppl you need right now.

    Also thank you for not dismissing what your therapist said. It is really hard to get some perspective on how fucked up stuff is if you go through it and trusting a therapist on it is very difficult as well, so you are doing great.

    With that I wish you the best - the struggle is over, now either you’ll move on or you will make even.
