Employment Law
We are committed to supporting Americans whose lives and livelihoods have been impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. Our dedicated team of attorneys provides legal services focused on employment law, ensuring your rights are protected during these challenging times. We specialize in three critical areas:
Reasonable Accommodations: The pandemic has created unprecedented challenges in the workplace, particularly for those experiencing disabling symptoms following a COVID-19 infection. We work diligently to help you navigate the process of requesting reasonable accommodations from your employer, ensuring that your work environment is safe and accommodating to your needs.
Disability Discrimination: Discrimination in the workplace can have long-lasting impacts on your career and well-being. If you have faced discrimination due to a disability, our attorneys are here to provide compassionate and comprehensive legal support. We will guide you through the process of filing a charge of disability discrimination with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), initiating litigation, and pursuing justice. We work to ensure your workplace is a fair and inclusive environment, where your rights are fully respected.
Severance Negotiations: The economic fallout of the pandemic has resulted in significant job losses and layoffs. If you are facing termination or have been offered a severance package, Pandemic Legal can help you understand your rights and negotiate fair terms. We provide expert guidance to ensure that your severance agreement reflects your contributions and future needs, giving you the security and support necessary to transition into the next phase of your career.
If you have been affected by the pandemic and need support in any of these areas, please reach out to us. We are here to stand by your side, offering the expertise and advocacy you deserve.
