Echo Park Sexual Harassment Lawyer

A common misconception is that sexual harassment is limited to unwanted touching. However, the law offers further protections. Lewd remarks, inappropriate images, and discrimination are all forms of sexual harassment. Essentially, any behavior that makes you feel comfortable is worth reporting to your manager, supervisor, or HR. 

Under California Law, companies must investigate all claims of sexual harassment and take action against the offending party. In a perfect world, the problem would be dealt with immediately, you would no longer work with the individual, and employees would receive additional training to prevent further incidents. However, as many sexual harassment victims know, the hard truth is that most cases are not taken seriously. In the worst situations, reporters end up dealing with retaliation for speaking up.

If your employer fails to take your claims seriously, our Echo Park sexual harassment lawyer can help. We will investigate and present your case to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). Then, we may be able to file a lawsuit against the person harassing you and your company for their inaction. Many cases are settled in negotiations, but if it is in your best interest, our attorney will take your claim to court, where a judge and jury will decide if you deserve restitution. 

Why Experience Matters In Sexual Harassment Cases

It can be intimidating to report workplace misconduct, especially if your complaint is against a superior. You may be worried that you will lose your job or suffer even worse treatment once the perpetrator learns they are being investigated.
