Employees in Riverside who have been treated unfairly at work because of a physical or mental disability, a medical condition, or a perceived disability have a resource in Eisenberg & Associates and its experienced disability discrimination attorneys.
An employer who treats a worker or job applicant unfavorably because of a disability, medical condition, or perceived disability is engaging in disability discrimination.
Employees with physical and mental disabilities receive wide-reaching protection under California law, including those who work in Riverside. Typically, the state’s anti-discrimination law applies to employers with five or more employees. Covered employers must also offer reasonable accommodations when the law calls for them.
Often, it slips by unnoticed.
Rarely will an employer declare, “You’re fired because of your disability.”
Warning signs might include:
Because facts differ from case to case, our Riverside disability discrimination attorney reviews what happened and helps you determine whether unlawful discrimination may be involved.
Your job, paycheck, and future can all be shaken by disability discrimination, and deciding where to turn is rarely easy.
Our disability discrimination attorneys at Eisenberg & Associates, serving Riverside, will listen, review the facts, and explain your legal options in plain language.
Ways our disability discrimination lawyers can assist:
California’s Civil Rights Department lists adjusted duties, schedules, work locations, medical leave, and equipment as reasonable accommodations where the law requires them. Whenever an accommodation may be needed, employers are also expected to engage in a timely, good-faith interactive process.
If your employer won’t cooperate, our California employee advocacy attorneys at Eisenberg & Associates can help you understand your rights, request accommodations you may qualify for, and take action.
Eisenberg & Associates practices employment law and stands with employees facing workplace discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination, and other job problems. Employment law can feel tangled, and you need not know every rule before you call.
Another explanation often gets offered by employers in disability discrimination situations. To see beyond it, we consider the full timeline, including what occurred before and after you shared your disability or asked for an accommodation.
Qualifying cases are taken by our disability discrimination attorneys on a contingency fee basis. Should we not obtain a recovery for you, legal fees are not owed. Which fee arrangement fits your case is a fair question to ask us.
Being heard is something you deserve. We use our time to learn about your workplace situation, look over the information you have, and lay out the legal options that may exist.
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 Counsel From Eisenberg & Associates, Standing Up for California Employees
Yes. Eisenberg & Associates represents employees in disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, retaliation, and wrongful termination matters, plus related workplace disputes.
The Civil Rights Department says covered employers generally must provide reasonable accommodation for qualifying disabilities unless it creates undue hardship, and may need to join a timely, good-faith interactive process. Eisenberg & Associates can review your request and their response.
It doesn’t. Depending on the facts, a denied promotion, fewer hours, demotion, refused accommodation, harassment, or retaliation may also amount to discrimination.
Employees may have legal protection against retaliation for protected activity, depending on the circumstances. If treatment worsens, keep records and think about speaking with our Riverside disability discrimination lawyer.
