Under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) and the California Family Rights Act (CFRA) California employees enjoy the ability to take leaves of absence from their jobs under certain circumstances such as:
- Pregnancy
- Medical care
- Providing care for a family member
- Adoption
Taking a leave of absence for any of these reasons is legally protected. However, that does not prevent unscrupulous employers from attempting to interfere with employees exercising their rights. If you need to take a leave of absence that you believe you are entitled to under the FMLA or the CFRA and your employer has attempted to interfere with your leave, you need to secure the representation of aggressive counsel to protect your rights.
