Are you an employer who has been accused by an employee of denying unpaid family and medical leave, or who wants to know more about how to avoid this legal pitfall? If so, you need the skilled attorneys at the Wisconsin law office of Brigden & Petajan, S.C.

We monitor all FMLA (Family and Medical Leave Act) regulations for our clients and advise employers across the country about applying the regulations, as well as about FMLA complaint avoidance. These are just a few of many services that our skilled law firm has provided to companies large and small across the country for over 30 years.

Our assistance to clients has been so successful that we have earned the reputation as being the "employers lawyers."

The first step of our representation in any FMLA matter is to ensure that you are aware of your employees' FMLA qualifications and eligibilities, from health, disability and seniority standpoints. We know that our clients appreciate the availability and personal service that we offer, staying abreast of the latest developments in the law and communicating them to you in language you and your employees can understand.

For More Than 30 Years, Your Legal Voice in the National Marketplace

Our experienced employment law attorneys can accurately advise you about an employee's reinstatement and transfer rights, and how layoffs, termination and work force reduction can take place during FMLA leave.

We also are glad to explain distinctions between FMLA leave and leaves of absence, short-term disability (STD) benefits, vacation time and workers' compensation benefits. As an employer, you should be well-aware of anything affecting the work time and leave time of your employees, particularly if they are injured on the job.

In family and medical leave and every phase of employment law our law firm's work is guided each day by the adage that the best defense is a good offense. That is why we provide clear advice and will draft comprehensive policies for your business regarding the application of family and medical leave, worker’s compensation and the Americans with Disabilities Act.

These kinds of proactive measures can prevent claims against you before they happen, and can act as significant defensive tools if claims are filed.

Tell our veteran employment law attorneys how we can help with your business's Family and Medical Leave Act issue during your initial consultation. We have more than 30 years' experience that can make a difference in your case.
