NYC Attorneys for Maternity Leave, Short-Term Disability and Other Time Off Issues
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is designed to protect the rights of employees who must take time off work to handle family-related concerns or medical emergencies. There are also other types of leave, such as maternity leave, short and long-term disability leave that may not be covered by the FMLA. At the law firm of Raff & Becker, LLP, our attorneys are experienced at representing employees who are unfairly denied FMLA or other leave or who experience issues upon returning to work. We are dedicated to pursuing the most efficient and cost-effective resolutions that preserve our clients' rights and interests.
Protecting Employees' Rights Under the FMLA
FMLA applies to a variety of situations. It allows employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to recover from a serious injury or illness or to care for a sick family member or a new baby. Our lawyers help clients understand their rights and take the appropriate steps to protect their job security under the FMLA.
If you are unfairly denied FMLA leave, or if you experience discrimination or retaliation upon returning to work, we will help explain your options and help protect your rights.
Contact the New York City FMLA lawyers of Raff & Becker, LLP, to discuss your case in more detail. We will help you take full advantage of your rights as provided by law.
