Discrimination Law Solution
Both the abruptness of the termination and the unwillingness to allow Maria to publish her own work were outside the norm in her area of work.
We reviewed the situation and drafted a letter to her former employer outlining her claims for national origin discrimination. We were able to negotiate not only an increased severance payment, but also permission to publish her own work under her own name.

Postscript
Maria's case serves as a reminder that severance payments are not always the only goal in a wrongful termination case. For Maria, protecting her professional reputation by publishing her work was at least as important. If you are in a similar situation, remember that you should identify for your attorney all of the things that are important to you, so they can be included in a settlement agreement if possible.
