Unemployment
It’s not uncommon for a person to be dismissed from a job due to corporate cutbacks, company politics or even pettiness on the part those in charge. Sometimes people lose their jobs because they’re just not the best fit for the job. That doesn’t mean they’re not entitled to collect unemployment insurance while they look for another job. Employers are required to carry unemployment insurance for just that reason — the job market is a competitive market where employers can often let employees go at the drop of a hat for purely business reasons. It’s also common for employers to allege that a fired or laid-off worker did something wrong, and doesn’t deserve to collect unemployment. That’s when you need an Oklahoma unemployment attorney.
You need not face your employer alone, and you need not be intimidated by the official hearings – usually conducted by telephone – where an employer is allowed to state the reasons they think you don’t deserve unemployment. The Bartlesville unemployment attorney often knows better than employers what are the limited reasons you can be denied unemployment benefits. If the employer can’t prove their case, you can get your benefits — including back payments for the weeks your unemployment insurance was withheld.
