Common Questions About Retaliation Claims
How do I prove retaliation?
To prove retaliation, you must show (1) you engaged in protected activity, (2) your employer took adverse action against you, and (3) there is a causal connection between the two. Timing, documentation, and witness testimony can help strengthen your case.
What if I’m still employed?
You don’t have to be fired to have a valid retaliation claim. If you’ve been harassed, demoted, or treated unfairly after speaking up, legal remedies may still be available.
How long do I have to file a claim?
Deadlines vary depending on the type of claim. For example, you typically have 300 days to file a retaliation charge with the EEOC, but only 180 days under Virginia law in some cases. It’s best to consult an attorney as soon as possible.
