California Sexual Harassment Lawyers
Sexual harassment can come in many different forms, including an employee being subjected to inappropriate comments or touching and a supervisor or employer making any term of employment depend upon an employee's submitting to sexual or romantic overtures. In California, all employers are required to protect their employees from sexual harassment, even when the harasser is a third party like a customer or vendor. California workers classified as independent contractors are also subject to many protections against sexual harassment.
The law forbids retaliation against employees who report sexual harassment and/or object to or refuse unwanted advances. Retaliation may occur through wrongful termination, refusal to promote, unjustified discipline, denial of a bonus or raise, demotion, reduction in hours or work, or transfer to a less desirable shift.
Sexual Harassment Lawyers
Our attorneys frequently represent victims of sexual harassment, causing offending employers to pay our clients substantial recoveries and terminate the individuals who harassed our clients or failed to properly protect our clients from their harassers. We typically represent victims of sexual harassment on a contingency fee basis, meaning our clients do not pay our firm anything except a percentage of the money we recover for them.
