Maternity: The social and legal acknowledgment of the parental relationship between a mother and her child.
Learning that you are pregnant and will be bringing a child into the world is an exciting and joyous moment. However, after the excitement dissipates, the anxiety may build regarding your treatment at work and potentially being terminated. There are state and federal laws which protect the fundamental right to have children and build a family. However, many employers manipulate the system and discriminate against pregnant women.
If you believe you have been discriminated against after your employer learned you are pregnant, you must seek legal representation immediately.
- Demotion before, during or immediately following your leave
- Wrongful termination before, during or following your leave
- Removal of responsibilities
