Award Winning Representation

Riverside Disability Discrimination Lawyer

Living with a disability should never put your job at risk, yet all too many employees find themselves quietly pushed aside after asking for help or flexibility at work. If you’re feeling uncertain about where you stand, you’re not alone. The lawyers at Nosrati Law have over four decades of combined experience helping employees in Riverside and throughout Southern California assert their rights.

Disability discrimination cases are deeply personal. They often arise after an employee has done everything “right.” They disclose a condition, follow procedures, and ask for a modest accommodation, only to be met with resistance or retaliation. We’re personally passionate about the cases we take on and believe in the people behind them.

We also make representation accessible. We work on contingency and offer virtual consultations, so you can get answers and advocacy without taking on added financial risk while your livelihood may already feel uncertain.

“Reasonable” vs. “Undue Hardship”

One of the most contested issues in disability discrimination cases is whether an accommodation request was truly reasonable or whether it posed an “undue hardship” on the employer. Many employers lean heavily on this phrase, hoping employees will accept it without question.

In practice, courts have been clear that many accommodations are considered reasonable, especially when they involve minimal cost or operational disruption.

Examples often include:

Modified work schedules
Remote or hybrid work arrangements
Additional breaks
Ergonomic desks or chairs
Specialized equipment
Temporary light-duty assignments

In some situations, reassignment to a vacant position may also be appropriate if it allows the employee to continue working.

Employers, however, frequently exaggerate the burden. They may claim an accommodation is “too expensive” without showing the actual financial impact or argue that it would disrupt operations, despite having made similar adjustments for other employees.

The law doesn’t require perfection, but it requires good faith. An employer must explore options and justify any refusal with concrete evidence, not speculation or inconvenience. When we investigate these cases, we look at company size, available resources, prior accommodations, and internal communications to determine whether “undue hardship” is being used as a shield rather than a legitimate defense.

Our lawyers have been doing this work for 40+ years combined, and have seen how often reasonable requests are mislabeled as unreasonable, and we know how to bring those inconsistencies to light.

Moving Forward with Confidence

If you were denied an accommodation or punished for requesting one, our Riverside disability discrimination lawyers can help you determine what actually occurred. Nosrati Law will review your situation carefully and explain whether the law supports your claim. When employers draw the line in the wrong place, we’re here to help you push back clearly, calmly, and with your dignity front and center.
