Site Closings and Mass Layoffs

Losing your job can be devastating. This can be overwhelming in the event of a plant or office closing and resulting mass layoffs. We can help determine what your rights are in a closing-related termination or extensive "down-sizing" in which many employees lose their livelihoods. If your employer is large enough to qualify under the federal WARN Act and has fired more than one third of its employees, or 500 or more employees without 60 days written notice, the WARN Act may warrant compensation.
