What is the name of your state? NJ
Edited: I deferred $15K of salary for stock. I own 17,000 and change shares of IPO stock. IPO is scheduled for mid 2010 but we could also be acquired at the right price.
I sent an email to the CFO who had been harrassing me, demoralizing me. After I sent my email (which was factual and not emotive) I was terminated the next day. I have a consult with a labor lawyer next Monday. Separated exempt employees are entitled to the FMV of their shares as of the termination date. I have been told that the shares are mine. I don't know what to believe anymore.
Do you think I should pursue litigation and wrongful termination? I did nothing wrong but set into evidence which I could back up how he mainly focused on negatives (of which there were few). Now they are emailing me 2 weeks later offering me a recommendation "despite the broken friendship".
Any views?
Many thanks.

PS: I was the Director of Administration for an international law firm, 6 figure salary, before I took a motherhood break. I had faith in this company and took a low salary because of the stock purchases. I thought I had friends but obviously friends don't exist in the workplace. It's taking me longer than I thought it would to re-realize this - apologies for the long post.
