Gary Martoccio, founder of Martoccio Law Group, shares his journey from college baseball player during the 2008 financial crisis to becoming a successful employment law attorney licensed in nine states. He discusses the specific requirements for valid employment law claims, automation in legal practice, and key considerations for starting and scaling a law firm.

When can getting fired actually be illegal? It's a question that plagues countless workers, but the answer is far more nuanced than most realize. Employment attorney Gary Martoccio pulls back the curtain on what actually constitutes a valid employment law claim in a country where at-will employment gives employers tremendous power.

"Everything that's mean or cruel or harsh or unfair is not illegal," Martoccio explains, immediately dispelling common misconceptions. Having recovered over $50 million for clients throughout his career, he reveals the specific categories where employees actually have legal protection: discrimination against protected classes, medical accommodation issues, pregnancy-related matters, and sexual harassment. The crucial factor? Timing between a protected activity and an adverse employment action.
