For employees across Orange County who faced unfair treatment at work tied to a physical or mental disability, a medical condition, or a perceived disability, Eisenberg & Associates offers experienced disability discrimination counsel.
Whenever an employer puts a worker or job applicant at a disadvantage on account of a disability, medical condition, or perceived disability, that is disability discrimination.
Employees living with physical or mental disabilities are broadly protected by California law, and Orange County workers fall within that protection. Those searching for wrongful termination lawyers in California should know the state’s anti-discrimination law usually covers employers that have five or more people on staff. Covered employers must also provide reasonable accommodations when the law demands it.
Spotting it takes attention, since it rarely announces itself.
It is rare for an employer to state plainly, “This decision is because of your disability.”
Situations that may point to it:
Facts change from case to case. To help you determine whether unlawful discrimination may be involved, our Orange County disability discrimination attorney reviews what happened.
Your job, income, and future may all feel the effects of disability discrimination, and working out a next step can be difficult.
You will find disability discrimination attorneys at Eisenberg & Associates serving Orange County who will listen to your story, review the facts, and explain your legal options in language you can understand.
Our disability discrimination lawyers assist with:
Modifications to equipment, work locations, schedules, job duties, or medical leave can all count as reasonable accommodation where the law requires, California’s Civil Rights Department explains. Employers, for their part, are expected to run a timely, good-faith interactive process whenever accommodation may be needed.
Should your employer decline to cooperate, Eisenberg & Associates can help you understand your rights, seek accommodations that may be yours, and take action.
Our work at Eisenberg & Associates centers on employment law, representing employees who are dealing with workplace discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, and other job-related trouble. Legal rules can be hard to make sense of. No prior knowledge of them is needed before you get in touch.
It isn’t always obvious when disability discrimination has occurred. Employers may point to an unrelated reason for what happened. We examine the whole story, including events before and after you told your employer about your disability or requested an accommodation.
Contingency fees are how our disability discrimination attorneys in Orange County handle qualifying cases. Legal fees are owed only after we obtain a recovery for you. Which fee arrangement would apply to you is something you can ask us.
Having someone hear you out matters. We make time to understand your situation at work, look through what you have, and explain the legal options that could be open to you.
If you believe your employer treated you unfairly because of a disability, medical condition, or perceived disability, you can call Eisenberg & Associates at (213) 201-9331 or fill out our contact form to tell us what happened.

Employment Law Attorneys at Eisenberg & Associates, Serving California
It does. Eisenberg & Associates represents employees in disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, retaliation, and wrongful termination matters, along with related workplace disputes.
Covered employers generally must provide reasonable accommodation for qualifying disabilities unless it causes undue hardship, and may need to engage in a timely, good-faith interactive process, per the Civil Rights Department. Eisenberg & Associates can review your request and your employer’s response.
No, a claim does not hinge on termination. Depending on the facts, discrimination may involve a denied promotion, fewer hours, a demotion, a refused accommodation, harassment, or retaliation.
Employees may have legal protection from retaliation for protected activity, depending on the circumstances. If treatment worsens after a request or complaint, keep records and consider speaking with our Orange County disability discrimination lawyer.
