Our Naperville employment attorneys handle a wide range of workplace legal matters, including: wrongful termination (firing an employee for illegal reasons such as discrimination, retaliation, or in violation of a contract); workplace discrimination based on race, sex, age, disability, national origin, or other protected characteristics under the Illinois Human Rights Act and federal law; sexual harassment claims; wage theft and unpaid overtime under the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act and the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA); non-compete and non-solicitation agreement disputes; and retaliation claims for whistleblowing or exercising protected workplace rights. Whether you are an employee or an employer, we provide practical, experienced counsel.
Yes — Illinois is an at-will employment state, which means that in most situations, either an employer or an employee can end the employment relationship at any time, for any reason or no reason at all, without legal consequence. However, there are important exceptions. An employer cannot terminate an employee for an illegal reason — such as discrimination based on a protected characteristic, retaliation for filing a workers' compensation claim, or whistleblowing. Employment contracts and union agreements may also limit at-will status. Understanding where the exceptions apply — and whether your termination crossed a legal line — requires careful analysis of the facts. Our Naperville employment attorneys can evaluate your situation in a consultation.
Illinois has strong wage protection laws. Under the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act (IWPCA), your employer is required to pay all earned wages, including final paychecks, by the next regular payday following termination or resignation. If your employer fails to pay wages owed, you may file a complaint with the Illinois Department of Labor or pursue a civil claim. The IWPCA allows employees to recover the unpaid wages plus a 2% monthly penalty on the amount owed after the payment date, as well as attorney's fees if you prevail. Federal law under the FLSA also protects against unpaid overtime. Do not let an employer delay or withhold your earned wages — these claims have strict filing deadlines.
