Need to know my wife's rights after working for a company for over 14 years, and filling in as store manager while the company was not filling the position. She was forced to act as manager without compensation, and went years without increase in pay. Now they have informed her that they are closing the location and she was asked to sign a settlement agreement.

If your wife has been terminated she should definitely contact our office to schedule a consult with one of our lawyers to review the package that was offered to her and assess whether it is adequate (she should not sign the package before having a lawyer review it). With respect to the issue of her filling in as store manager without an increase in pay for many years, it seems there may be a limitations issue in pursuing that legal issue. However, I highly advise your wife to reach out to us so we can better assess her situation.
