You did not ask to have a medical condition but it doesn't affect your ability to do your job. Yet, you tell us that your employer is treating you unfairly because the employer, in its opinion, thinks you are disabled, or has an unreasonable prejudice against your medical condition or that you might be unable to do your job in the future because your medical condition might change for the worse. So the employer, treats you unfairly, denying you equal wages, promotions, job growth opportunities and job benefits - or even fires you. That is unfair, and it's illegal. Discrimination based on perceived disability is illegal under Federal, New York State and New York City discrimination laws.

Sometimes you tell us that you are subjected to a hostile environment based on your perceived disability. People are making hurtful comment about your medical condition, or they use code words. A hostile environment based on perceived disability discrimination is illegal under Federal Law, New York State Law, and New York City Law. In our more than 25 years of experience, we have been helped many employees subjected to perceived disability discrimination and to a hostile environment based on a perceived disability, and we will be your lawyer for negotiations or a court suit in New York State Courts or New York City so that injustice is stopped.
