Sexual Harassment

Standing Up for a Peaceful, Safe Workplace

Sexual Harassment can affect every part of your life, from your family, to your income, to your health. You don't have to put up with sexual harassment at work. Malkinson & Halpern, P.C. will provide professional, compassionate, and experienced representation to make sure you can work safely and in peace.

Stop Sexual Harassment in Your Workplace

State and federal laws protect workers from sexual harassment at work. Employees have the right to be free from sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or sexually hostile work environments. Any time your schedule, job, or responsibilities are conditioned upon whether you agree to sexual conduct or whether you tolerate sexually abusive behavior, you may very well have a sexual harassment claim against your employer.

Federal and state laws go even further. Workplace discrimination laws include any time harassment happens based on an employee's sex or gender. That means you are protected against any employment decisions or offensive statements based on gender stereotypes or expectations.

Hostile Work Environments

Unlike many workplace discrimination lawsuits, sexual harassment claims do not require a showing of an "adverse employment action." Even if you are still working at your job, you can still seek changes in office policy and procedures, protecting you and your co-workers from sexual harassment. This kind of lawsuit takes an employment attorney with a special touch. Because you will still be working with supervisors, coworkers, and bosses on a day to day basis, you need a team that will stand up for your rights without straining relations in the workplace. We know what is required to negotiate policy change while maintaining your employment status.
