San Francisco Breach of Employment Contract Lawyers

Employees in California are presumed to be employed “at will.” This means, generally, that you can be fired with or without cause at any point in your employment. However, some employees have valid written or oral employment contracts that offer certain protections.

A breach of contract claim may exist if your employer has failed to follow the terms of the agreement:

  • Terminated you before the specific time period as agreed in a contract;
  • Terminated you without “good cause” when the contract requires it;
  • Not paying you per the terms of the contract; or
  • Not providing all benefits that the parties agreed to in the contract.

  • Change in control contingencies
