Hypothetical question

Looking for advice on a legal issue in Michigan. Here's what happened.

pregnant employee pushed to resign. I've been dealing with this for about 2 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 2 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What are my legal options here? Is it worth pursuing?

Illustrative response

I've dealt with this before.

The trap most people fall into is escalating to a supervisor/manager. I'd recommend following the formal complaint procedure instead no cap.

Illustrative response

NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. But don't just take my word for it, get real legal advice.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
