Where To Turn When You’ve Been Wronged

Lawyers For Disability Discrimination Claims Representing Employees In North Florida And South Georgia For 20 Years
Pregnant women, workers who require leave due to a serious health condition or that of a covered family member, and people with disabilities are afforded specific employment rights and protections under two federal laws: the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Unfortunately, employers routinely ignore these laws, misinform employees or retaliate when workers invoke their rights.
The Tallahassee law firm of [nap_names id=”FIRM-NAME-1″], is known for holding those companies accountable through lawsuits to enforce rights or collect damages. Serving North Florida and South Georgia, our lawyers represent disabled workers, pregnant workers and others covered under FMLA or ADA. Contact us today for a consultation.
Americans With Disabilities Act Discrimination
The ADA makes it illegal to discriminate in hiring or in the workplace on the basis of a person’s physical or mental disabilities. Furthermore, the ADA requires employers to make reasonable accommodations of the disability in order for that person to perform his or her job. A common form of discrimination is refusing to hire disabled workers who are equally or more qualified than other applicants. Other disabled employees are treated unequally in job assignments and promotions, or they are terminated when they demand accommodations such as handicapped parking, special equipment or adjusted work hours.
