Violations of Family and Medical Leave Act

Family and Medical Leave Act Attorney

Milford, Connecticut

Connecticut employees enjoy many rights for medical and parental leave under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and additional complimentary state laws passed by the state of Connecticut. When your employer violates your rights, there are legal actions you can take, and an experienced employee rights attorney can help.

Employee rights advocates Tony Pantuso and Jessica Boudreau of The Pantuso Law Firm, LLC, are committed to protecting the right of Connecticut residents as provided by the FMLA. We have helped many hundreds of individuals and employee groups resolve a wide range of employment law issues.

Attorney Tony Pantuso Can Help You Understand Your FMLA Rights, and Sue for Damages When Your Rights Are Violated

FMLA violations can occur both deliberately and by carelessness and confusion. For instance:

• FMLA cases can involve an employer's deliberate denial of your rights. This occurs when, for instance, an employer demands that you be at work when you are scheduled for necessary surgery.
• FMLA cases also occur when employers fail to fully understand your right to time off for family- and medical-related issues. This can occur when an employer fails to understand Connecticut law, which may allow more time off for medical issues than the FMLA.
• FMLA violations also occur when employers retaliate against employees who wish to exercise their FMLA rights. Employers commit retaliation violations when they demote employees who take time off under the FMLA, fire them or otherwise tangibly reduce their compensation or benefits.

Whatever the cause, the result is the same— the violation of your rights, and loss of pay, benefits or even your job.

If you suspect your employer has violated your Family and Medical Leave Act rights, we can fight for your deserved compensation in court or in settlement negotiations. We focus our practice exclusively on helping employees obtain their full rights when employers break the law.
