Sexual Harassment occurs when an employer subjects an employee in his/her work environment to unwelcome verbal or physical sexual behavior, or other abusive behavior directed disproportionately against women, that is either severe or pervasive or when the employer conditions decisions on satisfaction of a sexual demand. The Supreme Court has recently made employers more liable for incidents of sexual harassment.
Sexual harassment is any unwanted and unwelcome sexual behavior, which can include verbal (e.g., derogatory comments, tales of sexual exploits) and/or physical harassment (e.g., leering, inappropriate touching, asking for sexual favors), displaying derogatory posters or art, and other advances or inappropriate conduct. In order to be considered illegal, the conduct must be unwelcome and offensive to the victim.
Before you hire an attorney, ask for references and ask to be provided with a copy of the attorney’s retainer agreement and have it explained to you before decide on retaining the attorney or the attorney’s law firm. A sexual harassment attorney will want to know who you are and how you can be contacted. The attorney may also ask for a personal and business background and any information relevant to your case. You probably wouldn’t be meeting with the attorney in the first place if you weren’t ready to hire somebody. While you may still change your mind at almost any point, be prepared to proceed forward by bringing a checkbook and/or a credit card to pay a retainer to the attorney if he or she asks before moving forward. Keep in mind that attorneys cost a lot of money and you will be expected to pay for their services. From the attorney’s perspective, a client who is unwilling to pay a retainer up front for good legal advice may not be willing to pay for it down the road.
