Family Medical Leave Act

Professional Employment Law Attorney

Brad Dorrance of Keefer Wood Allen & Rahal, LLP specializes in employment law including violations of the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). For employers with 50 or more employees, the Family Medical Leave Act allows employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave due to family or health-related issues, such as childbirth, care of a newborn, or a personal health condition. The employee may take either continuous or intermittent leave.

If you elect to take FMLA leave, your employer generally must allow you to return to the same or an equivalent position before the expiration of the leave. FMLA, one of the strongest protections for eligible employees to retain their jobs, should be considered in conjunction with most leave requests.

If you feel you have experienced discrimination, harassment, or unfair treatment under the Family Medical Leave Act, call today at (717) 255-8014 for a free, confidential consultation.
