Eisenberg & Associates provides experienced California disability discrimination lawyers to help employees who have been treated unfairly at work because of a physical or mental disability, medical condition, or perceived disability.
Disability discrimination happens when an employer treats a worker or job applicant unfairly because of a disability, medical condition, or perceived disability.
