Former Vanguard Employee Sues Over Family Leave

Ignites included a quote from Atlanta Partner Jennifer Sandberg in the October 23 article, "Former Vanguard Employee Sues Over Family Leave."

The article discussed a recent case in which an employee filed a lawsuit against a firm for allegedly firing her in retaliation for taking leave to care for her son with severe asthma.

"Indeed, the FMLA is a difficult area for employers," said Jennifer. "Handling how absences are reported to the firm, especially with intermittent leave, is particularly thorny."
