Legal Question in Disability Law in Virginia
employment and ADA
I was injured at work and the work comp MD is going to release me as having a permanent injury (MMI) to my back with work restrictions that I work from home. Part of my work as a consultant can be done from home . Traveling and working in client offices can not. Can my company just let me go now and say the can not accomodate me?

Eventually, what you've suggested might well happen, but it probably would be for purported reason(s) other than the one you've suggested, i.e.,that they couldn't accommodate you.
