No One Should Dread Going To Work
Harassment at work — whether sexual, based on race, religion, age, disability, or any other protected characteristic — violates federal and Florida law when it creates a hostile work environment or results in an adverse employment decision. Harassment includes offensive jokes, slurs, intimidation, ridicule, and unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature.
We handle every harassment matter with the sensitivity the situation demands and the assertiveness it requires.
Harassment Takes Many Forms
It is rarely a single dramatic event — more often it is a pattern. Examples include:
Sexual harassment, including quid pro quo demands
Slurs, epithets, or offensive jokes
Unwelcome touching or advances
Intimidation, threats, or ridicule
Offensive images, texts, or emails
Retaliation after rejecting advances
What To Do If You Are Being Harassed
Document each incident — dates, times, witnesses, and communications. Report the conduct to HR or management; employers are generally liable for harassment they knew or should have known about and failed to correct. Preserve evidence, and speak with an attorney before signing anything like a severance agreement with non-disparagement or release terms.
Our firm investigates, works with agency processes, and pursues compensation for the harm you have suffered.
