Just got fired from my contract at the VA because I have a disability and asked for additional training. I filed a complaint but now they are stopping me from getting another job. What should I do?

    Check and see if an employment lawyer has a free initial consultation. If so, review the case with them and decide how to proceed.

    I guess you can contact top brass but unfortunately there is little you can prove.

    I would suggest asking a lawyer who offers free consultations. They should be required to make reasonable accommodations under the ADA. Good luck!

    That sounds like a difficult situation. If you believe your disability or accommodation request affected your termination or future job opportunities, documenting communications and seeking appropriate employment guidance early can help you understand your options.
