Frequently Asked
Questions

At Razavi Law Group, we understand that navigating a personal injury claim can be overwhelming, especially when dealing with medical bills, insurance companies, and legal procedures. To help you make informed decisions, we’ve compiled answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about personal injury cases. Whether you’re wondering about the claims process, the compensation you may be entitled to, or how our attorneys can assist you, our FAQ section is designed to provide clarity and guidance. If you have additional questions, our experienced legal team is always here to help.

Most Asked Topics

What compensation can I recover in a wrongful termination lawsuit?

You may be entitled to:

  • Lost wages and benefits

  • Emotional distress damages

  • Punitive damages (in cases of egregious misconduct)

  • Attorney’s fees and legal costs

  • Reinstatement in some cases

Can my employer fire me for reporting illegal activity or unsafe conditions?

No. Terminating an employee for reporting illegal or unsafe activity is considered retaliation and is illegal under California whistleblower protection laws. You may have a valid wrongful termination and retaliation claim.

How long do I have to file a wrongful termination claim in California?

The statute of limitations varies depending on the claim type:

  • FEHA violations: 3 years to file with the Civil Rights Department (CRD)

  • Retaliation or whistleblower claims: 1–3 years depending on the law violated
    Acting quickly is important to preserve your rights.

What kind of evidence do I need for a wrongful termination case?

Helpful evidence includes:

  • Termination letters or emails

  • Performance reviews or disciplinary records

  • Witness statements

  • Documentation showing retaliation or discrimination

  • Copies of complaints or HR reports you submitted

How do I know if my firing was illegal?

If you were terminated after reporting misconduct, requesting accommodations, taking protected leave, or being subjected to discriminatory treatment, your firing may be unlawful. A consultation with an employment lawyer can help you determine if you have a valid claim.

Can I be fired without a reason in California?

Yes, California is an at-will employment state, which means employers can terminate employees without cause. However, firing someone for an illegal reason—such as retaliation or discrimination—is not allowed and may be grounds for a wrongful termination claim.

What qualifies as wrongful termination in California?

Wrongful termination occurs when an employer fires an employee for reasons that violate state or federal laws, such as discrimination, retaliation, breach of contract, or for taking legally protected leave (e.g., FMLA, CFRA, or pregnancy leave).

I was involved in a rear-ended car accident in 2025. I researched a dozen of injury law firms and diligently compared their reviews for consistency. After interviewing the the top firms in OC, I decided to go with Razavi Law. From my initial case assessment with Sam, to having prompt communication and streamlined processing, and meeting with my phenomenal lawyer Tim & James, i truly felt I was given a client centered-care “white-glove” experience. My case management team, with Leslie & Leila, was amazing, supportive, and detailed with every step of the way. I’m very grateful of James & Tim for their unwavering support, exceptional knowledge, compassion & dedication. James was always respectful by making time to inform & review my legal documents with me patiently; such a great client advocate who genuinely cared. The outcome to my settlement was way beyond my imagination - thank you! I am honored to say their consistent positive client feedbacks are absolutely true. I really feel blessed for having Razavi Law represent me. Your law firm will always be my & all my friends’ primary choice in the future.

We wanted to thank Mariana and James for helping us and guiding us through this process. We have felt especially concerned for and been taken care of extremely well. We highly recommend this law firm and will use them as our first choice in the future!
I love love this law firm!! Thank you so much to Christina and Veronica and the team for caring about me and working so hard to get me extra in the settlement. This is my second time with Razavi and they've always made me feel comfortable and rest assured that my case is in good hands. I went through a difficult time and they helped me all the way - basically went above and beyond! Because of the accident, I needed medical care and they were so quick to provide me with medical care. Christina, you are amazing! Thank you Razavi for having such wonderful attorneys.
Omg I regret that I didn't go with Razavi Law Firm when I got my dog attack. The lawyer I went with is NOT communicative at all. Seeing how well Christina and Veronica took care of my husband and really cared about him TWICE. This is the second time he's chosen this law firm. My husband said why didn't I choose his lawyer. It was because I didnt know they also did dog bites. I definitely want them as my lawyers in the future !! You guys wont be disappointed at all.

Grateful for the Razavi Law Group! Very helpful and knowledgeable. I appreciated the continuous communication and status of my case. They answered all my questions and fought for me to get the best possible compensation. Highly recommend!
This is my second time working with Razavi Law Group, the first time was a pleasurable experience by proxy (my friend got into a car accident, I in the passenger seat) about five years ago and I came back when it was my turn (sob). At the top of the year, a man rear-ended my car. Working with Veronica and Stephanie and team, it was yet another excellent experience and an extremely favorable outcome! Thank you Razavi Law Group! I'll be returning (if ever needed). Highly recommend them for their professionalism and good vibes!

The team at Razavi Law Group was incredible. They were supportive, honest, and got me a great settlement. I can’t thank them enough for their professionalism and compassion. Highly recommend!
No one ever expects to need a personal injury lawyer. My life came to an abrupt halt after my car accident. What I thought would take just a few weeks to recover from ended up consuming over a year of my life.As an ICU nurse who’s spent years caring for others, I suddenly found myself in a vulnerable position where I didn’t know how to advocate for myself. From the moment I found Razavi Law Group, everything changed.The entire team was diligent, respectful, prompt, and informative. They truly care about their clients and made me feel supported every step of the way. They went above and beyond and exceeded my expectations from start to finish.I would 100% recommend Razavi Law Group to anyone in need of a personal injury lawyer. They genuinely care — and it shows.

I was involved in a devastating car accident in August 2024. Fortunately, a family member referred me to Razavi Law Group, and I couldn’t be more grateful for that recommendation. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make sure I received the care I needed. They connected me with top-tier brain specialists, covered hospital expenses, and ensured I had access to physical therapy sessions, every step of the way, they had my back. Thanks to their dedication, I was able to fully recover and return to my original self. On top of that, I received a settlement that was more than fair. While I hope I never experience something like that again, if I ever do, I’ll go straight to Razavi Law Group without hesitation.P.S Amber and Cameron were the best they kept me updated through out the entire lawsuit.I Highly recommend Razavi Law Group!
I was in an accident last December amd didn't know what to do. I had called a different firm regarding my accident before I was referred to Razavi Law Group. And let me tell you just based on first interactions from both firms you call tell who was more about the money and who was more about caring for the client. That being said Razavi was the the way to go. They took care of me every step of the way. Made sure my health came first and made sure I was taken cared of when it came to dr appointments and physical therapy. They made me feel as if my case was top priority and thay they were not just in it for the money but in it for the client. Shoutout to Tim, Meredith, and the rest of the team for being able to successfully represent me. Special shoutout to Cristina my case manager. She was transparent about the process from the very beginning, explaining everything. She was always available for updates and questions. And when she wasn't, her assistant would step in to help and also relay back to Cristina and the team my questions and concerns. Overall great experience with the team and would highly recommend to anybody looking to be represented.
They are really professional and nice. Just fight for you!
