Michigan city scape in grey
Marko Law Firm

Can I sue my employer for wrongful termination in Michigan?

Yes—if your firing violated the law.

Michigan is an "at-will" state, which means employers can terminate workers for almost any reason… or none at all. But there are clear legal lines they can’t cross:

  • Fired because of your race, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, or disability? That could violate the Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act or ADA.
  • Terminated after reporting illegal activity, unsafe conditions, or harassment? That could be whistleblower retaliation—and it’s illegal.
  • Let go while on FMLA leave or after requesting accommodations? That’s a red flag too.

We’ve gone toe-to-toe with the Michigan Department of Corrections, Fortune 500s, and city governments—and won historic verdicts doing it.
