The firm has handled cases involving “quid pro quo” sexual harassment in which an employer or supervisor demands sexual favors in exchange for a raise or promotion, or threatens to demote or terminate the employee when such advances are rebuffed.  The firm also handles “hostile environment” cases where the employer makes the working environment is made intolerable to due inappropriate jokes, comments, and other offensive actions of a sexual nature.  

Sexual harassment is prohibited under both federal and state law.  Claims can be brought by both women and men who have been subjected to such treatment by an employer or supervisor.
