Legal Question in Employment Law in Kansas

I am suing my former employer for they laid me off after 7 months on restrictions from a work place accident. I filed a work mans comp claim. I filed ADA with the EEOC and received a right to sue letter. I called several employment lawyers but none would take my case for they are all flooded with cases. I had no choice but to go Pro-se in civil court. Unfortunately i forgot to state a claim in first paper work and since the company did give me reasonable accommodations, the lawyers are trying to have the case dismissed for failure to state a claim and was no retaliation for ADA. Please help. Thank You!

Ask the judge (in writing, with a copy to opposing counsel) for leave to amend your complaint. Then hire an attorney for the limited purpose of drafting an amended Pro Se Complaint. It would be better to have the new Complaint when you make the request to the judge.

Good luck
