Your Rights Under the Family and Medical Leave Act Must Be Recognized

The Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 (FMLA) entitles eligible employees to take job-protected leave for specified family and medical reasons.

Eligible employees are entitled to:

- - Twelve workweeks of leave in a 12-month period for:
    - The birth of a child or to care for the newborn child.
    - The placement and care of an adopted or fostered child with the employee.
  - Care for the employee’s spouse, child, or parent who has a serious health condition.
  - A serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the essential functions of his or her job.
  - Any qualifying exigency arising out of the fact that the employee’s spouse, son, daughter, or parent is a covered military member on “covered active duty”.

If you find yourself being denied your FMLA, contact us immediately for guidance and a free consultation regarding your situation.

Don’t Quit: Otherwise Your Claim May Be Compromised.
Instead, Call Us to Discuss Your Rights and Options.

What Should You Do Right Now?

You must complain, which can be done to a supervisor or to the HR department.
Know your rights that age discrimination is wrong, and that it is never the victim’s fault.
Understand what constitutes illegal discrimination – are you being treated differently (and adversely) solely because of your age? Is your employer refusing to offer reasonable accommodations?
DON’T file a complaint or charge with a governmental agency, such as the EEOC, BEFORE speaking with a qualified employment lawyer. Filing a complaint or charge can directly impact the course of action available and your future options.
Learn whether you have a valid claim – get experienced legal advice. Our firm focuses on discrimination, wrongful termination and other workplace claims – we can evaluate your case, and there is no fee or obligation.
Filing deadlines must be considered. These deadlines vary depending on different factors, such as whether the case will be in federal court or state court or the size of the company.
