Howard County Employment Lawyer | Wrongful Termination

Howard County

In the corporate offices of Columbia and Ellicott City, Fortis Employment Law provides the elite, direct legal strategy that Howard County professionals expect when their careers are threatened by an illegal firing.

We speak the language of Howard County professionals. You aren’t looking for a sales pitch; you’re looking for a sober assessment of your legal leverage. We specialize in cases where the facts are complex—terminations following a request for a disability accommodation or "quiet firing" tactics used to force out high earners.


Our presence in Howard County is built on the idea that local workers deserve a law firm that matches their own level of professionalism. We are ready to litigate in the Howard County Circuit Court in Ellicott City to ensure that Maryland’s employment protections are more than just words on a page.

Howard County is consistently ranked as one of the most educated and professional counties in the country. Employers here—from Fortune 500 companies to specialized consultancies—expect a lot from their people. When those employers violate the law by firing someone for taking medical leave or reporting harassment, the impact on a career can be devastating.
