The rudeness of Maia was awesome! She badgered a potential client better than any defense lawyer. She commendably not only didn’t understand the issue, she sided with the employer in the matter. If you are looking for someone verbally attacking you, then ask to speak with Maia, she will not disappoint!!

Disappointed with them, and I will not use their service again. Most common than not record of proof is more important than what people say, and they said this, and that, and didn't show or gave me any written proof of what was done!

My name is Jamee, I recently called Gold Star Law for some help. I spoke to someone from the office, I believe an assistant. I explained my situation and was asked a bunch of questions regarding what happened with me at my previous job. The next morning, that same girl called me back and she told me unfortunately the attorneys weren’t able to help me at that moment. I was given the info to go to the EEOC and start a case with them and was told once I received my ‘Right to Sue’ letter I could call Gold Star Law back. So, I’m with the EEOC currently and I’m just thankful that even though Gold Star wasn’t able to help me right away, that they directed me in the right path on how to get help. The lady I spoke with was super nice and friendly, called me back right away and explained in detail why the attorneys couldn’t take my case right away. Thank you Gold Star law, I will be a client one day soon.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

I have diabetes and have had issues where I have needed time off. I have tried for several promotions only to be rejected. I have been threatened, verbally abused in my recent attempt to move up. Do I have a case

To find out whether you have a valid case we would need to talk to you and get a lot more information. For example, we would want to look at each promotion for which you applied and see who got the promotion instead and why they got it instead of you. We would also look how your employer has handled your time off for diabetes. If you call us at (248) 851-GOLD we would be happy to discuss this issue with you.

I work for general motors for 23 yrs. And quit. Do you think that deserve any retirement from them?

I would call their number and speak with them directly. It will be more discrete, and they, I'm sure, will have some means of helping you!

Can an employer let go older workers (62 +) and replace them with the younger workers whose jobs have been outsourced to India. The company has facilities in India.

Can a company that allots time for volunteering, make volunteering mandatory?

Lynnda Hagerty | Nov 4, 2019
Wolf Scott | Nov 4, 2019

I would say no if you're volunteering your time the company cannot make volunteering mandatory but they can allocate mandatory time but you might want to call Goldstar or any attorney that can handle legal matters as far as employment or even better yet check the company policies themselves they have to have a handbook with their rules and regulations and their policies of what they can and can't do and if they're violating their own policies than you have them there I work for a company that did that stated you couldn't work more than 14 days in a row but they work everybody until everybody got tired and would call in sick I work 30 days in a row and beg for a vacation day

Give them a call directly and describe your exact situation.

My current employer is failing to promote me, I've been on the job 5 years, work 7 day a week, great work ethic but they won't allow me to do other positoins, and I believe it because of my race, can start a case

8587 Inc | Nov 4, 2018
Gold Star Law | Nov 3, 2020

If you call us we can discuss this is more detail to see whether you have a case that should be pursued. For example, we will want to know everything that makes you think your race may be a factor in failing to promote you and who is getting the promotions that you are being denied. Call us at (248) 851-GOLD so we can see if we can help with this issue.

Can a employer fire you for no reason? And also can a employer confront you about calling HR when being anonymous.

Katie Neal | Nov 4, 2018
Gold Star Law | Nov 3, 2020

Whether an employer can fire you depends on a LOT of circumstances. In general, Michigan is an at-will state, so you can usually be fired for any reason that is not an illegal reason. However, there are many exceptions to this. If you call us at (248) 851-GOLD we can discuss your situation in more detail and see whether there is anything we can do to help.

I have an employer that has decided to remove commission paid from my paycheck, when a client opts to pay their invoices late. The employer had previously extended the client credit. The money comes in but my employer keeps the commission. Legal?

Brian Campbell | Nov 4, 2018
Gold Star Law | Nov 3, 2020

Whether this is legal will depend on how your commission is structured and when and how any change in commission payments was instituted. If you call us at (248) 851-GOLD we can discuss your pay situation in more detail. Please have your written commission plan or agreement, if there is one, on hand so we can get all the information.

I worked for a company for the past four years. I would often go in early rarely took lunch breaks was never compensated. Was told it was my choice to come in early. Was laid off due to a decline in business.

Is it against the law for an employer to schedule you to work to a specific time and then try to force you to work past the scheduled time.

Leonora Slue | Nov 4, 2018
Gold Star Law | Nov 4, 2018

Generally, an employer is allowed to set work hours and change them with little to no notice. However, there are certain circumstances where this could be illegal, such as if certain employees are targeted for unfavorable job assignments based on a protected status or if an employee is unable to work certain hours due to a disability or religious restriction. If you call us we can talk about your specific situation to see whether there is anything we can do to help.

Every time i would ask about my hours..my supervisor told me she couldn't give us hours at that time.even Told me everybody work 8-3..but gave my co-workers back a hour 7-3 some kept they whole eight hours an i had more seniority. What can i do

MY co worker told me my supervisor told her to leave extra trash on my floor so i would have excessive trash in the morning.is that grounds for anything

Proof is everything. But I would call them directly for something like that.

Can a company change vacation policies without notification to employees?

Heidi Sisler | Nov 4, 2018
Gold Star Law | Nov 4, 2018

Yes, a company can change their policies. However, if an employee has no notice about a decrease in vacation time and acts under the assumption that there was no change with the policy, then there is a possibility that the employee is entitled to be treated like they would under the old policy since they acted in reliance on that policy.

Can you sue for wrongful termination if you get your job back?

Danielle Brown | Nov 4, 2018
Gold Star Law | Nov 4, 2018

Yes, but your damages you can recover are limited because your out-of-pocket economic loss is smaller.

I recently was sent home early from work demoted and stripped of my company vehicle, all because I would not perform a task that osha would not approve! It risked my life! Do I have any kind of case

Tom Morgenstern | Nov 4, 2017
Gold Star Law | Nov 4, 2018

Possibly! It is illegal in Michigan to fire an employee for refusing to do something illegal. Call us and we can talk about it!
