In California, employees are protected under both the Family Rights Act (CFRA) and the federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) in taking time off work for serious family or health issues. These laws ensure employees can go back to their jobs after leave is taken and get the same pay and benefits. Employees are also guaranteed the same status and cannot be demoted to a lower rank.

FMLA Attorney Los Angeles, FMLA qualifications:

  • Pregnancy, childbirth, or maternity leave to spend time with newborn.
  • Bonding with an adopted child, or child placed in foster care
  • Having a serious medical problem
  • Caring for a member of your family, such as a spouse, domestic partner, child and parents

It is illegal for an employer or supervisor to retaliate or discriminate against an employee for taking time off of work for legitimate reasons of family and medical leave.

    WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY:
    Annick handled my case and won.
        

    I hired LibertyBell Law Group for a civil case and I coudn't be happier. Annick handled my case and won. After the case was over I was still having trouble collecting from the Defendant and she guided me on the next steps to enforce my Judgment. I will definitely use this law firm again. Highly recommend. Thank you Gina T and your staff.

    Irena Shut and Nancy made this process seamless.
        

    I recently hired Liberty Bell Law Firm to assist in a civil matter involving our ex business partner. Irena Shut and Nancy made this process seamless. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is involved in a complicated civil matter. They were able to save us a lot of money without having to go through the expense of a costly litigation.

    If I can give them more than 5 stars, I would.
        
    If I can give them more than 5 stars, I would. I really can't thank this firm enough. I came across LibertyBell Law Group after a recommendation from my next door neighbor. I needed legal help on a pretty complex matter. After speaking with their office a few times I decided to hire them. I am so glad I did. These guys were so thorough, so dedicated to my case. They are truly the best at what they do. I am so thankful for everything they did for me. Highly recommended. You will not be disappointed.
