A breach of contract essentially occurs when one party has failed to follow the terms of the agreement. Of course, this can become complicated as some cases require arbitration or trial. It can be tricky to navigate without proper legal representation, so make sure you work with a trusted legal firm such as RWI Law.
Employment contracts typically detail the employer and prospective employee’s expectations regarding the job position, responsibilities, employment benefits, and compensation. They’re essentially a legally binding agreement between both parties as they set the rights and ground rules of the relationship. The contract can also allow for certainty regarding the terms of the separation of the employment relationship if it needs to be terminated.
Minnesota is essentially an “at-will” employment state, which means an employer can fire their employee for any legal reason. The contract you signed may also have some clauses and terms that explain policies of termination and the length of time you could be employed. Even if you feel that you were wrongfully terminated, the employer hasn’t broken a law if you weren’t fired illegally. However, there may be a chance that you were wrongfully terminated if the employer failed to comply with the signed contractual agreement.
