Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

fired while on medical leave. I've been dealing with this for about 6 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 1 years. My position is exempt and I do have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What's the typical outcome in situations like this?

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

In my case, it took about 4-8 months to resolve. The key was filing with the appropriate government agency.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
