Any advice on applying for unemployment in California would be appreciate. I’m wrecked right now over this.

    They said they were going to but didn’t. I don’t know the details but it’s very possible that there won’t be much that can be done without a significant amount of evidence. The only option is to do a few free consultations with different labor lawyers and see if any want to take the case.

      They said they were going to make a written statement, it’s likely they’d already talked to someone about making that statement, which would still be retaliation.

      From what I understand, CA labor law is pretty pro-labor about retaliation. When I worked in CA, there were mandatory labor law trainings every year or so, like 90% of which was “this is discrimination, this is harassment, this is retaliation, here are your rights about it”
