The person is now searching for a job. During interview or on the application the question comes up, why did you leave your last job/explain/ etc? It obvious they will have to say that they were terminated which will NOT look good
What would a person say as not to look like they are sue happy or whatever and that the termination was no fault of them? What is the best way to explain this situation to the potential employer? Should the the person even bring up they have a lawsuit against the previous employer from their wrongful actions?

I have a cousin who fired and told her to put "job ended" when asked the reason for leaving on the application. She was never asked about the job she was fired from and was hired for the position. Just focus on what skills you gained from that job instead of revealing you were let go from the employer.
