Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have a case if I was fired in Mississippi?

Mississippi is an at-will state, so many firings are legal — but not all. If you were fired because of discrimination, retaliation for a protected complaint, taking FMLA leave, reporting illegal activity, or another reason the law protects, you may have a claim. A free consultation is the fastest way to find out.

How much does it cost to hire an employment lawyer?

Nick Norris, P.A. offers free initial consultations, and many employment cases are handled on a contingency basis — meaning no attorney’s fee unless you recover. Several employment statutes also allow a court to order the employer to pay your attorney’s fees if you win.

How long do I have to file a claim?

Deadlines are short and vary by claim. Many discrimination, harassment, and retaliation claims require filing a charge with the EEOC within 180 days of the act. Other claims carry different deadlines. Because missing a deadline can end an otherwise strong case, it is best to talk to a lawyer quickly.

Does the firm represent employees or employers?

Employees only. Nick Norris, P.A. represents workers — never employers — in employment disputes throughout the State of Mississippi.

What types of employment cases does Nick Norris handle?

Wrongful termination, workplace discrimination, retaliation, sexual harassment, FMLA violations, unpaid overtime and wages (FLSA), whistleblower and False Claims Act retaliation, WARN Act mass-layoff claims, and USERRA military-service rights.
