I'm not sure what help you may need other than the recommendation of an attorney to see whether you have a case. I think the real question is whether your rights were violated or whether your own actions were what contributed to your termination. Without knowing more, it is impossible to discuss.

If you were insubordinate, then the employer had every right to fire you provided they would have treated a similarly situated employee in the same manner. Being approved for FMLA and potentially having a disability that falls under the ADA does not mean the employer has to tolerate misconduct.
