Your question regarding Privacy...there are employee privacy rights in California and of course when it comes to health and medical information there is HIPAA. You indicate that you voluntarily left your employment and that can be problematic depending on the facts which put you in a position where you felt you absolutely had to do that. Therefore, although the facts may be embarrasing to you it is imperative that you apprise us of all of the facts leading up to your decision so that we can properly evaluate your case. If you prefer you can forward that information directly to us at smesq1@aol.com..........Stephan Math Esq.
