Pregnancy Discrimination
When you are pregnant, you don't have time to worry about your job. Morning sickness, exhaustion,
prenatal checkups, decorating your baby's nursery, and many other responsibilities cause enough worry.
The last thing you need to worry about is your job.
Unfortunately, many women are treated differently at work after they tell their boss they are pregnant. Just
when you need more money to prepare for a new family member, many women become victims of
pregnancy discrimination.
Our office works to prevent this. We offer private consultations advising you on how to tell your boss you
are pregnant and educating you on how you can protect your rights in the workplace before there is a
problem. If you are unable to prevent discrimination at work, we are savvy litigators who will work to obtain
the best remedy for you.
Age Discrimination
The law protects workers age 40 and over from age discrimination. If your employer has terminated,
demoted, or treated you differently because of your age, you may need an attorney. Contact us for more
information on what you can do to protect your rights.

Disability Discrimination
If you have a disability, your employer may be legally obligated to accommodate you so that you can continue to work effectively. If your employer
has refused to accommodate your disability or is treating you differently because of your disability, we can help. Whether you have been
terminated, forced to take leave, or you are worried that your job is making your disability worse, you should contact our office to discuss possible
legal remedies.
Gender Discrimination
Despite many advances in gender relations, discrimination against women in the workplace is still prevalent. If you are being treated differently at
work because of your gender, our office can help. Dedicated to helping women achieve equality in the workplace, The Law Offices of Sarah B.
Schlehr can help you protect your rights.
Military Leave
The war in Iraq has caused many reservists in the Army, Navy, Marines, National Guard, and other branches of the U.S. Military to be called to active
duty. Unfortunately many of these patriotic men and women who are fighting so hard for our country are later forced to fight for their jobs. If you
have taken military leave and are struggling to receive the promotion you deserve or to be reinstated in your job, please contact our office.
