Termination from former employer for wrongful reasons?

Yes. Based upon your description of the facts, you could have a strong case. Discrimination based upon actual or perceived disability is unlawful under both Federal and Washington law. Please feel free to contact me for further evaluation of your potential claim.

Is my wife a victim of age discrimination at Group Health Cooperative in Seattle, WA?

Your description suggests that your wife may well be a victim of age discrimination in the workplace. The basic elements of an age discrimination claim are that the employee: 1. Is over 40 years of age; 2. Was performing satisfactorily; and 3. Suffered an adverse employment action. More details are necessary for me to provide a more informed evaluation of the strength of your wife's potential claim.
