Workers’ Compensation Attorney Thomas W. Herman of The Law Firm of Westmoreland, Patterson, Moseley, and Hinson in Macon, Ga. answers the question:
Can I Sue for Wrongful Termination in Georgia?
The short answer is no.
Georgia does not have a wrongful termination statute. Georgia is an at-will employment state, which means either party can terminate the employment relationship at will at any time for any reason without any recourse.
The only exception is if your employer discriminates against you in the termination process.
