Did you ask for a schedule change, equipment, or another workplace adjustment because of a disability? Our Los Angeles office reviews what you requested and how your employer responded.
Request a free initial consultationUnderstanding the issue
Reasonable accommodation can help a qualified employee perform essential job duties. California law requires covered employers to engage in a timely, good-faith interactive process when accommodation is needed; an accommodation need not be provided if it creates undue hardship.
Possible adjustments depend on the position and limitations. A review examines the requested change, alternatives discussed, relevant restrictions, and the employer’s explanation. No single adjustment fits every job.
What we review
- Essential duties and the work-related limitations
- What adjustment was requested and when
- Alternatives discussed and reasons for denial or delay
What to prepare
- Job description and accommodation correspondence
- Relevant provider notes about functional restrictions
- Meeting notes and proposed alternatives
Frequently asked questions
What details matter when an accommodation request is refused?
Explain the work tasks affected, the adjustment requested, and any alternatives discussed. Bring the request and response, and identify relevant supporting documents for the consultation.
Does the employer have to choose my preferred adjustment?
Not always. An effective alternative may be appropriate. The process and the practical effect of the proposed accommodation matter.
Can I request a review while still employed?
Yes. Describe the current work situation and any upcoming meeting or response deadline.
Consultation and timing
Filing deadlines depend on the claim and procedure. Tell us about an approaching deadline, agency notice, or signature request when contacting us. Requesting a consultation does not extend a deadline or establish an attorney-client relationship.
