Wrongful Termination Case Strength
Summary
In Rhode Island, wrongful termination claims can arise if the termination violates laws or contracts. Weingarten rights allow union employees representation during investigatory interviews. If conversations were structured to avoid triggering these rights, it may be a violation. Documenting these instances and consulting with a lawyer can strengthen your case. Consider reaching out to the Rhode Island Bar Association for referrals to employment law specialists.Full Conversation
It's a work issue, specifically improper termination.

I just want to know how strong my case is...
To assess the strength of your wrongful termination case in Rhode Island, consider these factors:
- Was your termination due to discrimination (race, gender, age, etc.)?
- Were there any retaliatory actions for whistleblowing or reporting harassment?
- Do you have a written employment contract that was breached?
If any of these apply, your case could be strong. Would you like more detailed information or assistance from a local lawyer?

At least * of these applies.

Okay, so i worked for a hospital group for 10 years. In that time, multiple managers approached me for matters that could reasonably result in discipline without my union rep. They called them "conversations" and brought up conduct that could get me into trouble. This is a weingarten violation, yes?
Case Rating: *
In Rhode Island, Weingarten rights allow union employees to have a representative present during investigatory interviews that could lead to discipline. If these "conversations" could result in discipline and you were denied a representative, it may be a violation.
Would you like guidance on how to address this issue internally or consider connecting with a lawyer?

Well here's the thing, they didnt specifically deny representation, but i believe they deliberately avoided saying things in a way that would immediately trigger weingarten protections... "It's just a conversation"...
Case Rating: *
It sounds like you're dealing with a nuanced situation. If these "conversations" were structured to avoid triggering Weingarten rights but still involved potential discipline, documenting them carefully might be important. Do you have evidence or records of these conversations?

I have names and approximate dates, but beyond that, no.

Hi ****, given your situation, it seems there might be potential for a wrongful termination claim, especially if Weingarten rights were subtly avoided. Consider gathering more evidence, such as any written communication or testimonies from colleagues. Would you like more information on addressing this issue internally?

Well ive been talking to Stephen Dennis... This isn't his specialty but he seems like a very sharp capable lawyer... And he didn't shut me down like another lawyer did when discussing the case.

Can an employer be sued for "indirect denial" of weingarten rights? Even if it's essentially a he said/she said sitch?
Case Rating: *
In Rhode Island, indirect denial of Weingarten rights can be challenging to prove, especially in a "he said/she said" situation. However, if there is a pattern or evidence suggesting deliberate avoidance of triggering these rights, it could strengthen your case. Gathering any possible documentation or testimonies may be beneficial.

well let me put it this way. I can specifically name about * former managers who engaged in these "conversations" (and i'm not joking when I say they ALL used that terminology) after i specifically asked if it was disciplinary and was told "it's just a conversation"... by no less than * former managers over 10 years.
