If you were sexually harassed at work in Los Angeles or anywhere in California, the Genie Harrison Law Firm represents employees seeking accountability, protection from retaliation, and compensation under California law.

We understand how difficult it can be to come forward. Fear of losing your job, damage to your career, and emotional distress often prevent employees from taking action.

Our Los Angeles sexual harassment lawyers protect your rights. We guide you through the legal process and hold your employer accountable.

What Is Sexual Harassment in the Workplace?

Sexual harassment is not always obvious. In many Los Angeles workplaces, it involves ongoing behavior that creates a hostile or offensive work environment.

This may include:

  • Unwelcome sexual comments or jokes
  • Inappropriate messages or texts
  • Unwanted physical contact
  • Repeated advances after rejection
  • Requests for sexual favors

Under California law, harassment is illegal when it is unwelcome and interferes with your ability to work.

If you are unsure if your situation qualifies, a sexual harassment attorney in Los Angeles can evaluate your case.

What to Do If You Are Being Sexually Harassed

Taking the right steps early can strengthen your case:

  • Document incidents and dates
  • Save emails, texts, and messages
  • Report the conduct if it is safe to do so
  • Speak with a sexual harassment lawyer in Los Angeles

You do not need perfect documentation to move forward. An attorney can help you understand your options.

Your Right to Compensation

California law may entitle victims of workplace sexual harassment to compensation, including:

  • Emotional distress damages
  • Lost wages and benefits
  • Future lost earnings
  • Attorney’s fees and costs
  • Punitive damages in certain cases

An experienced sexual harassment lawyer can help determine the full value of your claim and pursue maximum recovery.

Filing Deadlines for Sexual Harassment Claims

California law limits the time you have to act.

In most cases, you must file a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department (CRD) within three years of the harassment.

Missing a deadline can prevent you from bringing a claim. An attorney can help ensure your claim is filed correctly and on time.

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Sexual Harassment

    What are the two types of sexual harassment?

    Sexual harassment generally falls into two categories:

    Quid pro quo: Job benefits are conditioned on sexual conduct.

    Hostile work environment: Ongoing unwelcome conduct creates an abusive workplace.

    How do I know if I am a victim?

    If the conduct is unwelcome and creates an uncomfortable or intimidating work environment, it may qualify as sexual harassment.

    A sexual harassment attorney in Los Angeles can help evaluate your situation.

    What should I do if I’m being harassed?

    • Document what happened
    • Save evidence
    • Report it if possible
    • Speak with an attorney

    Can my employer retaliate against me?

    No. California law prohibits retaliation for reporting harassment. If your employer demotes or fires you, or treats you unfairly, you may have an additional legal claim.

    Do I need proof to file a claim?

    No. While documentation helps, many cases rely on testimony and patterns of behavior.
