t appears they could have handled the paper work better but they communicated the 3-31 termination date and dangled an opportunity to continue as contract labor. Their actions do not seem malicious and I cannot see how you have been damaged.

If he worked and was not paid for it, he was clearly damaged. If he had not received actual notice if termination, and had not executed a consulting contract, seems like he was still working under his perpetual employment contract.

Not a lawyer but it seems like this termination was not notified timely. There is no way the DOL would be cool with companies squeezing close-out work out of employees and cutting benefits.
