Pregnancy discrimination is a difficult experience that is often kept silent by many women throughout Florida and across the nation. Most women hope that when they become pregnant, they can make preparations to remain out of work for several weeks to care for a newborn. Unfortunately, many working women face retaliation and other unacceptable responses related to their pregnancy. If you have felt the effects of pregnancy discrimination, you may feel angry or depressed. At Hollifield Legal Centre for Women, we are dedicated to protecting the rights of women who have endured or are currently suffering pregnancy discrimination.
Pregnancy discrimination is a violation of both Florida law and federal law. Hollifield Legal Centre for Women can work to protect your rights as a pregnant woman and employee.

Maternity Leave
Maternity leave policies allow women to take leave before and after delivery. This type of leave is an option for women who are eligible under the requirements set forth under the Family and Medical Leave Act. If you do not meet those requirements, you are only entitled to maternity leave if your company provides non-pregnant employees with leave for other short-term medical conditions that require time away from the office. If you believe that your company is discriminating against you or failing to provide equal benefits, or if you suffered as a result of taking maternity leave, please contact our office. We can provide you with an initial consultation and an evaluation of your claims.
Flexible appointments ● Free initial consultations ● Convenient location just off of Park Avenue and Fairbanks Avenue with close proximity to Interstate 4
