I am looking a for good attorney looking to handle this case, circumstances detailed below:
11/18 - Job offer given by State agency, but per HR rules I have 28 days to start. Impossible since family and home I owned were out of state. Told next recruitment was in 2/19 and that I needed to be ready to proceed shortly there after. I was told the position would be held for me until then. In response, my home was put on the market which I would not have done otherwise if I had no job offer. Sold for $1.1 Million and closing costs were significant.
2/19- Re-applied and told I did not need to complete the interview process, that the job was mine. #2 in command assured me my start date would be in 6/19 and that the position was mine. Commending if anything, I was overly qualified and that I was overwhelming their #1 choice. I met and exceeded their minimum qualifications.
3/19 - My home was sold and all my belongings were shipped out of state.
4/19 - I signed a conditional job offer at the office, dependent upon background check and medical exam. Neither I had issues with. Walked around office, shown my desk and told what vehicle I would be assigned. shortly after my new home closed. I had 3 conditions I had to meet prior to employment, I had the live within 50 miles of the office, have a valid State driver's license and that I needed to begin within 28 days. I relied on these conditions to be ready once I was told I needed to start. None of the conditions were started. I moved into our new home and wife started a new career.
5/19 - I called to determine what the delay was and told my recruitment from 2/19 needed to be re-flown and that i needed to re-apply. I did so and never received any further considerations.
6/19 - Wife and kids are there full time and I am forced to fly back and forth weekly. My estimate loss in monies is approximately $100,000. I have applied for several jobs and have yet to be hired. Wife is now forced to hire childcare for duties I would have normally handled, not to mention this has caused significant family strain.
**Important note**
I needed to have a residence and drivers license prior to start of employment and I only had 28 days to make sure i was in comploienece***
I am looking for reimbursement of costs incurred and other applicable monies. I need a good attorney willing to handle such a case.
Any suggestions, I am being told by my home state that this is clearly a case of Promissory Estable.
