Re: returning to work

Under federal law the answer depends on a number of facts. These include the nature and duration of your condition, the limitation which you face and the accommodation which you are seeking to be able to return to work. These are all questions that are relevant to a determination of your rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

You should consult with an experienced labor and employment attorney to obtain some guidance on handling these issues. Additionally, you may have some rights under state law which can only be discussed with an attorney licensed to practice in your state.
