More information

You can easily contact an attorney to see if your case is worth pursuing. From what you have stated, it may be a Family and Medical Leave Act claim, but I am not certain because you did not provide enough information. Your employer has how many employees? Where is the company located? What type of business is it? What type of "disability" were you on? Did you have a doctor's diagnosis? Did you notify your employer prior to your leave? There are a lot of questions which I need answers to before I can tell you if you have a potential claim.
