Sexual Harassment
Sexual Harassment laws exist at both the California State & Federal level. Attorneys experienced in this area are useful for employers in situations where both an employer or employee is accused of harassment behavior. While it is genuinely appropriate for a sexual harassment victim to receive resolution, there are many individuals out there who seek to “scam”, control, or hurt employers by falsely accusing them or someone within the company of sexual harassment.
