Unfortunately, many employers being unconcerned about the physical and financial well-being of their employees create a "hostile" environment for injured workers who exercise their legal rights to receive Workers' Compensation benefits.

When employers "cross the line" and actually fire, force to resign, lay-off or otherwise discriminate against injured employees after they file for Workers' Compensation benefits. They are subject to being sued for substantial damages under both Retaliatory Discharge laws and the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA).

At Donald W. Fohrman & Associates, Ltd., our employment attorneys have the experience and knowledge to investigate, and where legally appropriate, successfully prosecute sexual harassment claims and other type of discriminatory conduct prohibited by the Civil Rights Act of 1964 including race/color, religion, pregnancy, age and national origin discrimination.
