Sexual Harassment Is Often the Worst Kind of Injustice
People who have suffered sexual harassment often say that it is the toughest kind of injustice to deal with. Sometimes the harassment starts out so quietly, almost invisibly, as supervisors allow a few off-colored jokes or improper posters or desk calendars into the office. Victims often keep quiet about the jokes and rough language, because they fear their job or promotion may be in jeopardy and they do not want to "rock the boat".
"Sexual harassment has to be the most painful type of discrimination I see. I've seen executives, professionals, school teachers, truck drivers, police officers, even fighter pilots, all crushed by sexual harassment. It's wrong and It's illegal. If you're not willing to let them get away with it, then maybe I can help. The sooner you call, the more I can do." — Attorney Stephen Boyce

Sexual Harassment Comes in Many Forms:
Some examples of sexual harassment are when a manager, co-worker, or a customer:
Touches you in inappropriate ways, including hugging, kissing, patting, or deliberately brushing up against you.
Asks offensive questions or makes offensive comments about your clothing, your body or your sex life.
Tells sexual jokes that you find offensive, or makes other sexually suggestive remarks even though you have objected.
Threatens to deny you a promotion, demote you, or terminate you if you refuse to accept a date or have physical contact.
Displays posters, magazines, pictures, or screensavers that are sexual in nature, or circulates explicit or sexually suggestive emails.
In addition to sex discrimination, we also represent clients in civil rights discrimination cases involving:
- Age discrimination
- Race discrimination
- ADA violations
