I charge a fee of $350 for case reviews or telephone consultations that may last up to two hours. The fee is payable in advance thru Paypal or by money order. Please send me an email if you want to consult with me by phone. (If you live in New Jersey, New York or Pennsylvania, you may want to meet with me in person). I will send you a Paypal invoice if that is the method of payment you chose. Upon receipt of notification of payment, I will contact you to schedule the consultation. Do not send any documents until you have paid the fee and we have spoken on the phone.

Please do not call or email me with brief or simple questions for which you expect answers for free. For although I enjoy what I do, I do it as a profession and not as a hobby. I would appreciate your understanding in that regard.

I reconsider my 2004 article in which I opined that, because the hypothetical letter carrier could not carry the mail, he was not a "qualified individual with a disability" and, therefore, he was not entitled to the ergonomic chair he requested to sit in while answering the phone in his postmaster's office. I still believe that my opinion was correct, but decisions issued by EEOC's Office of Federal Operations (OFO) put my opinion in doubt. Read the article and be transported to the frontier of "essential function" caselaw under the Rehabilitation Act of 1973.
