New York Disability Discrimination Lawyers

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires employers to make reasonable accommodations to help people with disabilities perform their jobs. The law also prohibits employers from refusing to hire or promote otherwise qualified candidates on the basis of a real, or even a perceived disability, such as pregnancy or recovery from an addiction. You cannot be fired, denied access, paid less or subjected to harassment because of a disability. If you are, this law gives you an opportunity to set those wrongs right.

At Leeds, Morelli & Brown, PC, we understand the distinction between the words, "inability" and "disability" and have been working to get that message across to employers for more than two decades. Through a combination of hard work, dedication and passionate advocacy, our attorneys have been able to provide clients with precedent-setting results through discrimination litigation in state and federal courts, and through the faster, more efficient means of mediation and arbitration.

Our clients benefit from our experience with discrimination cases and the team based approach we apply to handling their cases. This ensures that someone who knows them and what is happening in their case will almost always be available if a question or issue arises. It also enables us to perform a more comprehensive analysis of the legal issues involved, with more effective cost control and a more well-rounded decision-making process.

Leeds, Morelli & Brown, PC is a New York City area litigation firm committed to integrity, professionalism, vigorous advocacy and getting results in a variety of legal practice areas, particularly in the areas of civil rights and employment discrimination.
