Fremont FMLA Attorneys
The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the California family rights Act (CFRA) give employees the right to take time off due to their own health condition or due to the health condition of an immediate family member, such as a child, a spouse or a parent. If your FMLA or CFRA rights have been violated by your employer, the law allows you the opportunity to seek compensation.
Since 1985, the law firm of Patton Wolan Carlise LLP has been helping employees like you throughout the Bay Area get fair compensation for violations of FMLA and CFRA rights.
Your Family and Medical Leave Act Rights
Balancing a job and a serious health condition can be extremely difficult. FMLA leave is designed to make matters a little easier. If you have worked for your employer for at least 12 months, you have the right to take time off from work due to illness or injury, disability or pregnancy without worrying that your job is at risk. Similarly, you can take time off because of a family member's medical condition.
Unfortunately, there are employers that refuse to provide time off. If you have been denied leave, your FMLA or CFRA rights may have been violated. Similarly, if you were given time off, only to return and find that your job has been given to someone else, your rights have likely been violated. Our California lawyers will work to see your employer held accountable for the violation.
