Immigration / International Law
For more than 25 years, Thiele Law has represented employees facing wrongful termination, retaliation, and other workplace violations. Our experience extends across Western Pennsylvania and surrounding communities, helping workers understand their rights, evaluate the circumstances of their termination, and take action when an employer’s conduct crosses legal lines.
Wrongful termination and workplace defamation can take many forms. Sometimes it means being let go after reporting unsafe conditions or unethical behavior. Other times, it happens when an employer’s decision appears connected to discrimination, retaliation, or a violation of workplace protections. In some cases, harmful or false statements made during or after your termination can affect your reputation and future opportunities.
No matter what led to your termination, you deserve to understand whether your employer’s actions were lawful-and what steps you can take next.
We provide clear, practical guidance for employees who believe they were terminated unfairly or harmed by defamatory statements in the workplace. Our focus is on helping you make informed decisions, understand the factors that may affect your situation, and determine whether your rights may have been violated.
