Legal Question
My Dad was at his company for about 11 years, from what I've been told he had 1 accident recently were he damaged some product so he was suspended for 5 days when he came back he was offered to be laid off or fired. He was 60 years old and woried about being able to find another job so he chose to be laid off to qualify for unemployment benefits. He went back to pick up his last check a couple business days later and within a few hours had a heart attack and passed away. We feel he was fired because of his age. I was hoping to get a lawyers opinion.
