Our Employment Attorneys Fight to Enforce Maternity Leave LawsThe maternity & paternity attorneys represent mothers and fathers who have been denied the right to take maternity or paternity leave for the birth or adoption of a baby.
Federal law requires certain employers to provide employees up to 12 weeks of maternity or paternity leave.  This is true for both mothers and fathers.  Additionally, the law covers the adoption and birth of a new baby.  This law also prohibits an employer from retaliating against an employee who takes maternity or paternity leave.
