Hi there,

I recently was terminated "without cause" at my 3 year position as a Car Wash Attendant. In August of 2017 I was diagnosed with a severe panic disorder and had to go on a medical leave. When I told my employer this he shortly after asked for my keys back. When I asked for a reason for doing so he never replied and sent me a letter to my home address. The letter said "your(my) services are no longer required and you(I) have been terminated without cause". This happened in November of 2017. I would submit a wrongful dismissal claim but I am sadly past the 90 day period and am not too sure where I can go from here, if anywhere.

Thank you for your response.
