California Disability & Leave Rights Attorney

Protecting Employees Who Need Medical Leave or Workplace Accommodations

California law provides strong protections to employees who need time off for medical conditions, disabilities, pregnancy, or family-related health issues. Unfortunately, many employers ignore these laws, denying leave, refusing accommodations, cutting hours, demoting employees, or even terminating them for protected medical reasons.

 

At Taban Law Firm, we stand up for workers whose disability or leave rights have been violated. Whether you were denied reasonable accommodations, punished for taking medical leave, or retaliated against after returning to work, our firm is ready to protect your rights and fight for the compensation you deserve.

Your Rights Under California Disability & Leave Laws

California provides some of the strongest workplace protections in the nation. Key laws include:

FEHA (Fair Employment and Housing Act)

Gov. Code §§ 12926, 12940(a)
Requires employers to provide reasonable accommodations for disabilities and prohibits discrimination based on physical or mental conditions.

FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act)

29 U.S.C. §§ 2601–2654
Provides up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave for serious health conditions or family medical needs.

CFRA (California Family Rights Act)

Gov. Code §§ 12945.2, 12945.6
Similar to FMLA but with expanded definitions of family.

Pregnancy Disability Leave (PDL)

Gov. Code § 12945
Allows up to four months of protected leave for pregnancy, childbirth, or related medical conditions.

 

Under these laws, employers must provide leave, accommodations, and job protection—without retaliation or penalties.
