Filing a private FMLA lawsuit. The alternative approach for an employee is to file a lawsuit against the employer to enforce FMLA rights or to recover for some form of discrimination for requesting or receiving FMLA leave.

These lawsuits can seek a judicial order that the employer grant leave but given the length of time lawsuits take to reach resolution it rarely makes good use of the employeeâs time and money to file such a suit.
