Below are just a few of the quotes:
“'Pregnancy discrimination is typically treated as sex or gender discrimination, which is unlawful under both federal and most state laws,' says Steven Chizen, an employment attorney."
...
"'Consider all angles of a possible lawsuit, not just the monetary compensation,' Chizen says. While a lawsuit can bring justice and compensation, sometimes negotiating a higher severance and focusing on your career may be the better path. 'A good attorney who truly has your interest first will be able to walk you through this process, so you can make the decision that is right for you,' he says."
...
"'The tricky part of employment law is making sure the "truth" matches the "provable truth,"' Chizen says. 'Unfortunately, all that matters in a court is the provable truth.'"
