Your Rights

Depending on the size of your employer and other factors, you have the legal right to take leave to take care of a seriously ill spouse or child. There are various complications that can arise between employees and employers that can make it more difficult than it should be to take your leave.

In too many cases, employers do not allow their employees the legally protected leave. Sometimes they fire employees, give their jobs away while they are gone or demote them for taking their leave. Do not let this happen to you.

Our lawyers can look at your case, help you determine whether your rights have been violated, and fight to protect your interests. Contact Us
