Oakland Disability Discrimination Attorneys

When an illness or injury strikes with sufficient force that it prevents you from being able to function as you did previously, it can be described as a disability. Suffering from a disability can be extremely challenging. Aspects of your personal life and your family life may be forced to change. Often a disability will have an impact on the ability of an employee to carry out their responsibilities on the job.

Disabilities & Employer Accommodations in Oakland

When an employee develops a disability, the employer has a legal duty to engage in an interactive process that will determine a number of issues including:

• How to accommodate a employee's disability
• If an accommodation is possible

• How the terms of employment can be changed to accommodate the disability

Client Testimonial:

There were five of us female employees who were sexually harassed at work ... for years. The daily sexual comments, cat calls, leering, staring, grabbing and gross remarks made us feel sick and like we were just objects. Management didn't take it seriously until we hired Kelly Armstrong of The Armstrong Law Firm. She took over our case and made the other side pay all of us for our emotional distress. I highly recommend her to all sexual harassment victims who want her to fight for them to the finish."

My manager began harassing and discriminating against me after I told him I was pregnant ... He began trying to set me up for termination by falsely accusing me of poor work performance ... Kelly Armstrong and her team achieved a financial resolution for me that sent a clear message to my employer and allowed me to resume my life in a positive way."
