Editorial Team

All calculator methodology and guide content on fmlaviolationcalc.com is written and reviewed by The Click Lab’s editorial team before publication. Our editorial standards require that legal claims be traceable to primary authorities — statutes, agency regulations, or published judicial decisions — and that calculator formulas be documented in full on the methodology page.

Employment Law & FMLA Litigation Practice

Our editorial team leads editorial oversight for fmlaviolationcalc.com. With a background in employment law paralegal work and a focus on federal leave law litigation, the team has spent over a decade supporting employment attorneys through FMLA retaliation and interference cases, ADA accommodation disputes, and Title VII discrimination matters. That litigation support experience — reviewing FMLA designation records, tracking circuit court developments on the good faith defense, and monitoring DOL guidance updates — informs the editorial standards applied to every page on this site.

This side of the team reviews the calculator methodology for consistency with current FMLA case law and statutory requirements, monitors regulatory changes from the Department of Labor that affect the model’s assumptions, and edits all guide content for accuracy and appropriate scope. A persistent emphasis in this editorial work: clearly communicating the boundary between information that helps employees understand their rights and advice that should come from a licensed employment attorney.

Employment Claims & Workplace Rights Research

Our team also contributes research and writing for fmlaviolationcalc.com, focusing on the practical mechanics of FMLA claims: eligibility analysis, violation identification, the damages framework under 29 U.S.C. § 2617, filing options (DOL complaint vs. direct federal suit), and the interplay between federal FMLA protections and state leave laws. This research background spans published employment law reviews, federal circuit court surveys on FMLA liquidated damages, and DOL enforcement data on FMLA compliance.

This side of the team writes the guide content and FAQ responses, with an emphasis on making procedurally complex material — filing deadlines, notice obligations, intermittent leave designation — accessible to employees without legal training.
