At-will employment — with exceptions
Arizona, like almost every state, follows at-will employment: either side can generally end the relationship at any time. But at-will has important exceptions — discrimination, retaliation, contract, and public-policy claims — and whether one applies to your situation is exactly what an attorney evaluates.
Federal and Arizona deadlines can both apply
Employment claims often involve both federal agencies (like the EEOC) and state-level processes, each with its own filing deadlines — some quite short. Which forum and deadline applies depends on the employer, the claim, and Arizona law, so an early evaluation helps preserve options.
General jurisdictional information only — not legal advice. An attorney licensed in Arizona can confirm current rules for your situation.
