FMLA leave does not have to be taken in one continuous block, and many employees never know that until it's too late to use it correctly.

Intermittent leave allows you to protect your job while attending recurring medical appointments, managing a chronic condition, or caring for a family member, a few hours or days at a time.

If your employer has penalized you for using intermittent FMLA, call Scott for a free consultation.

A five-person company, a family-owned shop, a small office — size does not exempt a Michigan employer from civil rights liability.

The Elliott-Larsen Civil Rights Act applies to employers with as few as one employee, which means most of the protections that cover workers at large corporations cover you too.

If you experienced discrimination at a small business and assumed you had no options, call Scott.

These two agreements restrict very different things, and confusing them is a costly mistake.

A noncompete limits where you can work after leaving; a nonsolicitation limits who you can contact.

In Michigan, both are subject to enforceability challenges based on scope, duration, and the specific language used.

If you have signed either one and are considering your next move, call Scott before you act.

08/20/2026

Employers who require employees to return to work at full capacity before considering any accommodation are generally violating the ADA and Michigan's PWDCRA.

The law requires an individual assessment, not a blanket rule. If your employer has used a policy like this to deny your return or terminate your position, that may be a disability discrimination claim.

Call Scott to find out.

If shift assignments or promotions at your workplace have ever felt conditional in this way, call Scott for a confidential, free consultation.

Gender discrimination in the workplace rarely comes with a written policy or an admission.
It shows up in who gets assigned to high-visibility accounts, who gets held to a stricter standard, and who gets quietly passed over when promotions are decided.

Under Michigan's ELCRA and Title VII, that conduct is actionable.

If this pattern describes your workplace, call Scott to discuss whether you have a claim.
