Employment Termination Legal Advice

Summary

Employment in Texas is generally at-will, allowing termination without notice unless a contract exists. Document all communications with employers. If wrongful termination is suspected, consult an employment attorney. In Louisiana, seek pro bono legal aid for succession matters.

I was never informed about my replacement. I opened up the scheduling app only to find it blank. I text both owners several times only to get no response.
It sounds like a frustrating situation. In Texas, employment is typically "at-will," but if there was any written or implied agreement, it could affect your case. Here are some points to consider:
- Without a contract, the "at-will" employment doctrine generally applies.
- Document all communications and attempts to reach the owners.
- If you believe there was wrongful termination, consider consulting an employment attorney.
