Hi, my name is Maggie. A brief intro, I have been suffering bouts of
depression since I was in my teens (I am now 37.) I had returned to work
this past December following an extended leave that was lengthened against
my will by my employer. Then on Monday Feb. 10th, ridiculous false
accusations were leveled against me and I was again forced out on leave. I
have decided not to return to that employer because the harassment and now
this latest incident just causes me to slide back down into the hole and it
is not doing my health any good. However, I do want to fight back against
these accusations with the help of a lawyer, at the least clear my name, and
try to recover damages if possible. Is anyone here in or near the Capital
Region of NY and can you recommend a good lawyer who is familiar with Civil
Service Labor and Disability Law? So far I've only been referred to the
Albany Bar Association, so I have that and the Yellow Pages, but I would
much rather get a real referral from someone with experience. Thanks in
advance to anyone who can offer help, and thanks to all for reading this
from a sometime lurker. Best Wishes to all,Maggie
