What are the reasons for the termination? What are the circumstances that the termination is being done? Also, if he is a lawyer himself, he knows, the law. So give the complete picture for members to give you any advice.

Discontinuation of an employee whether she is pregnant or not, should follow fair procedures.
She should not get terminated only not based on the grounds that she is pregnant and she is about to take maternity leave. It is offense as per MB Act.
But, no employee can evade or escape from genuine management action towards their non performance, misconduct etc., because they are pregnant.
All the action to be well documented with performance reports, communications, corrective actions taken, training records and so on.

Dear Friend
you have not mentioned the reasons for such action. Is it because she is pregnant and you do not wish to pay her for 6 months and give leave?
If that is the reason, then it is immoral & inhuman.
Your Director's whims should be contained by reasons and rationale. Please explain to him. Being advocate does not exonerate him.
