In 1990, the United States Congress passed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), making it illegal for employers to make hiring or employment decisions based on a person's disability, if the disability will not prevent the worker from completing the assigned job tasks. The ADA also makes it illegal for an employer to discriminate against an employee because the employer perceives the employee to be disabled. Over the ensuing years, the ADA has been misinterpreted and ignored by employers who put profits ahead of the law.

No attorney's fees unless you receive money for your employment discrimination claim
Ross Law Group, has an in-depth understanding of how ADA regulations affect workers' rights. Employers are required to make reasonable accommodations for workers with disabilities. It does not mean they are required to hire a certain number of disabled workers, or install expensive safety equipment to the detriment of their bottom line. One of the most important factors that workers with disabilities often overlook is whether their particular impairment qualifies them for specific rights and entitlements under the ADA law. Many disabilities do not. Interpreting ADA law can be difficult and requires an experienced employment attorney. We can help.
