Disability Discrimination Concerns
Summary
A call from Bangladesh led to distress due to perceived disability discrimination. While New York takes disability discrimination seriously, jurisdictional issues may limit legal recourse. If the situation impacts significant life areas, such as employment, further discussion with a legal professional might be beneficial.Full Conversation
I am from New York
Hi Patrick! Is there a specific legal issue or question you need assistance with? Feel free to share a bit more about your situation.
There was a person calling my phone on messenger from Bangladesh but he did not want to talk to me because of my speech impediment she said can I talk to your mom because when she speaks it's clear and I believe that it's disability discrimination because my speech impediments part of my disability.
It sounds like a frustrating experience. In New York, disability discrimination is taken seriously under both state and federal laws, like the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). However, since this involves a personal call from another country, it might not fall under typical legal protections.

It made me feel extremely distressed

I'm sorry to hear about your distress, Patrick. While the situation is challenging, it might not qualify as a high-value legal case due to jurisdictional issues and the personal nature of the call. However, if this has impacted other significant aspects of your life, like your employment, it might be worth discussing further. Let me know if you have any more details or questions!
