I was a volunteer at [a hospital] until I was terminated for what I believe were unfair reasons. Back in August, I had given a note to a nurse with my phone number indicating an interest in her. When she expressed that she was not interested, I respected her response and ceased to volunteer for about a month. It was only when I returned in October that I was told I would be terminated despite my utmost professional conduct when I returned. I was escorted out of the hospital via security right after being handed a copy of hospital policies. I reviewed the policies and can confirm that I had NOT violated anything. Essentially, the volunteer office blatantly lied to me about their policies. When I e-mailed Human Resources of the hospital about it, they only said they wanted to speak with me over the phone. I don't trust them so am thus seeking legal consultation before making any further actions. I've been searching for employment lawyers for more than a month now, but no one seems to be interested since I was "never paid". I have however lost my vested interest in the form of a Letter of Recommendation that was earned via more than 100 hours of volunteering over a period of two years. What other types of lawyers can I search for to help me in this matter?
