I need a lawyer who is willing to listen, I was terminated on an alleged complaint from a customer that I did?
Where I worked we did repairs for $5.00 or $10.00. Some customers paid in cash some in Credit Card. Some want receipts and some don't care for them. We sometimes would get tips from customers who got the service free of charge. Well a customer claims that I declined to charge them with credit so they paid cash and that I did not give them a receipt also that they did not see me put the money in the register. There was an investigation from LP they ask me about it I said that all monies that I have received have gone to the register. there was never any reports that there was money or merchandise missing. So the customers perception of whether I put the money in or not is in questions as whoever that customer was, I don't think they stayed till the end of my shift to in fact verify that that the money never made it to the register . I was terminated on 02/28209 because of the alleged complaint. Who can help?

- i would think that some kind of truth had to be found in the complaint for you too be terminated.....you cant be fired jsut bcz of the complaint happening
- Unfortuntately, you probably do not have a claim. You would have no claim under federal law, so state law would govern. My state has employment at will, meaning that an employer can fire you for any reason or no reason at all, as long as it is not based on some protected category (sex, race, age, etc). If the employer was in good faith in thinking that you did something, even if you did not in fact do it, then they can fire you without any legal consequences. If you file for unemployment, if you can establish that you did not take anything, you are likely to get your UE benefits. But beyond that, I'm afraid there is nothing you can do. I am very sorry you are going through this. Good luck to you.
- you can be let go for no reason at all or any reason You have no case. If they deny your unemployment, you may be able to appeal.
- Go to the labor board.
