Our New York employment attorneys help workers understand and assert their rights under both the state's Paid Family Leave laws and federal FMLA laws. We guide employees through every step of the process, from requesting leave to addressing employer pushback or retaliation, to ensure you can care for your loved ones without fear of losing your job or benefits. With deep experience in workplace rights and leave laws, we work to secure the time, protection, and peace of mind you’re entitled to during life’s most important moments. Call our FMLA attorneys to schedule an appointment.
Sometimes all you need is to understand what kind of leave you might be eligible for or how to request it. You can discuss these questions, and your options, with an attorney by scheduling a consultation.
If you were fired after taking or asking for leave, you may have been discriminated against. The attorneys at Berke-Weiss Law can negotiate with your former employer on your behalf about your claims.
While most cases settle before any lawsuits are filed, we have engaged in forceful litigation in state and federal courts and can help you understand what litigation might entail.
If you believe you were wrongfully denied paid family leave by your employer, you may wish to engage an attorney to understand your rights and options going forward.
