Walnut Creek Harassment Law Helps You
Our office is here to help you when you have experienced harassment at work. We know the steps to take to file a lawsuit and we know the steps that you should take to protect yourself so that when we do file suit, your case is strong.
In some instances, we may be able to approach your employer and indicate that we are ready to file a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the Department of Fair Employment and Housing. That may motivate your employer to make sure that its practices do not fail you after you have already tried to get them to help you.
Since we know the ropes, we can talk to your employer about how to really solve the problem. Sometimes, your job just doesn’t understand the severity of the situation. That doesn’t make it lawful, but it means you may have hope without litigating.
If it turns out we do need to go to court, we help you with that, too. The point we want you to understand is that there are real, effective steps you can take that can make this better.
