Our client was an injured worker who had been fired from his job for alleged misconduct after he had made a request for disability accommodation in the workplace. His employer did not pay him any severance by relying on its allegation of misconduct. We were able to secure a substantial settlement for our client through strong representation and through our detailed knowledge of the facts of his case.
