I was not given any written warnings and on Friday was given a letter of dismissal filled with lies about my conduct, they are giving me two weeks severance is there anything else that can be done.

Hi Carol,

Thank you for your question.

Depending on whether or not you signed a contract and what the contract says, you may be entitled to much more than 2 weeks severance.

Furthermore, if it can be proven that your dismissal was conducted in bad faith (i.e. involving lies about your conduct), it is possible that additional damages could be awarded in your case.

I would strongly recommend that you contact our firm to schedule a consultation. From there we can gather more information and be in a better position to fully advise you as to your rights and entitlements.
