Legal Question in Employment Law in California

Company moving out of state and replacing me there

I work for a co. that is moving a few divisions out of state. I offered to go and they made me interview for the same job I'm currently in. They have also posted it on monster.com. Is this legal? Can they get rid of me because they're moving out of state?

they can fire you for any reason, except an unlawful one, if you have no contract, written or implied.

In most matters there are strict time limitations within which actions may be taken or your rights will be compromised. We are not taking any action on your matter and will not be considered your attorney or tax representative until both you and we have signed a fee agreement.

There are strict deadlines, called statutes of limitation, within which claims or lawsuits must be filed. Therefore, if you do not retain SELIKLAW, you should immediately seek the services of another attorney or other advisor.
