A Disability Should Not Cost You Your Job
If you live with a disability, chronic illness, injury, or medical condition, you should not have to worry that asking for help at work will put your job on the line.
Unfortunately, some employees are treated differently the moment their employer learns about a health condition or accommodation request. They may be quietly sidelined, denied support, written up for the first time, or let go under a reason that does not add up.
Smith Law helps California employees review whether what happened at work may involve disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, retaliation, or wrongful termination.

We review situations involving physical disabilities, mental health conditions, chronic illness, injuries, and requests for workplace accommodations.

Disability-Related Workplace Issues We Review
You may have a disability-related employment law issue if your employer treated you differently, denied your accommodation, ignored your medical restrictions, or made your job harder after learning about your condition.
Smith Law reviews cases involving:
Disability Discrimination
You were treated worse after your employer learned about a disability, chronic illness, injury, or mental health condition. This may include being demoted, excluded from projects, passed over for promotion, criticized more harshly, or singled out after your condition became known.
Fired After Disclosing a Disability or Requesting Accommodations
You were fired after disclosing a medical condition, requesting an accommodation, or returning from medical leave. Not every termination is illegal, but timing matters. If your employer's treatment changed after you disclosed a condition or asked for help, your situation may need legal review.
Denied Reasonable Accommodations
Your employer ignored, delayed, or refused a reasonable accommodation request connected to your disability or medical condition. This may include requests for modified duties, schedule changes, assistive equipment, remote work, additional breaks, or time off for treatment or appointments.
Failure to Engage in the Interactive Process
Your employer never had a real conversation with you about your accommodation request, or shut it down without exploring reasonable options. California law requires employers to engage in good faith when an employee requests accommodations. Skipping that process can be its own violation.
Retaliation for Speaking Up
Your employer punished you after you disclosed a disability, requested an accommodation, took medical leave, or complained about how you were being treated. Retaliation can include termination, demotion, reduced hours, write-ups, exclusion, or sudden increased scrutiny after you raised concerns.
Forced Out or Pressured to Quit
Your employer made your work situation so difficult that you felt pushed out after disclosing a disability or requesting support. This may include sudden discipline, impossible expectations, reduced support, schedule changes, or comments suggesting your condition made you a liability.
Returning to Work After Medical Leave
You were treated differently after coming back from medical leave related to your disability or health condition. This may include being denied your position, given worse duties, excluded from your prior role, disciplined shortly after returning, or told your job was no longer available.
Workplace Issues We Review
You may have an employment law issue if your employer treated you unfairly, punished you for speaking up, or failed to follow workplace laws. Smith Law reviews cases involving:
Wrongful Termination
You were fired after reporting workplace issues, requesting leave, complaining about illegal conduct, or standing up for your rights.
Retaliation
Your employer punished you after you complained, reported misconduct, requested accommodations, took protected leave, or raised concerns about workplace violations.
Discrimination
You were treated differently because of pregnancy, disability, medical condition, race, gender, age, religion, sexual orientation, national origin, or another protected status.
Sexual Harassment
You experienced unwanted sexual comments, touching, messages, advances, or a hostile work environment.
Unpaid Wages or Overtime
You were not paid for all hours worked, denied overtime, missed meal or rest breaks, or were required to work off the clock.
Medical Leave or Accommodation Issues
Your employer denied medical leave, ignored restrictions, refused accommodations, or treated you differently because of a health condition.
Hostile Work Environment
You were subjected to repeated mistreatment, intimidation, harassment, or unfair treatment that made your workplace difficult or unsafe.

Tell us what happened, and we will review whether your situation may involve disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, retaliation, or another workplace rights issue.
Why Employees Contact Smith Law for Disability Discrimination Cases
Disability discrimination can be hard to spot from the inside. Many employees are not sure whether their employer's actions were illegal, especially when the employer gives another reason for the termination, write-up, or denied accommodation.
Many employees with disabilities or health conditions worry about losing income, losing health insurance, or being labeled as difficult or unreliable simply because they needed support at work.
Smith Law focuses on employment law and helps employees throughout California with workplace claims involving disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, retaliation, wrongful termination, and related issues.
Our goal is to help you understand whether your workplace situation may require legal help.
