I was off on medical leave. When I returned I was being constantly questioned about how I was performing my job. Was asked if the job was suited for me any longer. The medical leave I was on was monitored by an outside company. They made the decision iif I was able to work or not. After 4 weeks I was still not able to do my job properly. I should mention that I was an assistant manager. They pressured me so much about my job, even mentioned I should step down. So the doctor took me off longer. While I was off and under pressure from the company, I suggested they give me a package deal to leave. They did. But when I talked to the doctor he suggested I go back and ask for my job back because I was off on medical leave and in no state of mind to make that discussion. When I went back they said no. I was in a major depression and was so messed up that I could not make doscussions.
Do I have a right to fight them?

The question to your answer depends on whether you can prove that the company took advantage of your vulnerable state. We need to properly assess the circumstances under which you accepted the deal and the language of the documents that you signed at the time so I encourage you to contact us at the number below to speak with one of our lawyers.
