Military Service is an Honor. Employment Rights Are the Law.
Marine veteran and Louisville attorney Kevin Wilson represents Guard and Reserve members facing workplace discrimination.
Understanding USERRA
Your Service is Protected by Federal Law
The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) protects your civilian job rights when you serve in the military. It ensures that your employer cannot penalize you for your service or deny you opportunities because of your military obligations.
USERRA protects against:
- Wrongful termination after service
- Denial of re-employment
- Denial of promotions or advancement opportunities
- Loss of job-related benefits such as health insurance, pensions, or vacation accrual
- Discriminatory treatment or retaliation due to military obligations
- If you’ve experienced any of these issues, you may be entitled to legal recourse. I can help you understand your rights and take the steps needed to protect your future.

Every day, men and women in uniform make sacrifices to protect our freedoms. When that service is met with bias, mistreatment, or unlawful termination, it's more than unfair—it’s illegal.

Reaching out to an attorney can feel unfamiliar, and that’s completely normal. The consultation is an opportunity to review your situation and determine whether your case may fall under USERRA.
