It is our mission to assist sexually harassed employees seek justice and compensation in the most comfortable matter for the client.

Call (951) 367-1000 for a Local Sexual Harassment Lawyer Our actual client results for victims of sexual harassment are astounding. Some of our sexual harassment case results include: - **$675,000 for sexual harassment in an Ontario warehouse** - **$672,500 for sexual harassment of restaurant wait staff** - **$465,000 for sexual battery and harassment of a gas station worker** - **$310,00 for sexual harassment of a pizza delivery driver** - **$260,000 for sexual harassment in a Palm Desert supermarket** - **$236,000 won in a binding arbitration for male-on-male sexual harassment** - **$225,000 for customer sexual harassment of a retail salesperson** - **$200,000 for sexual harassment and alleged sexual assault by a CEO** - **$193,500 for sexual harassment by a sexual predator the employer hired** - **$190,000 for verbal sexual harassment of a medical billing specialist** Few of the above case results involved sexual harassment victims who underwent any psychological treatment for their emotional distress as a result of being sexually harassed. Achieving these results for people who are largely describing, in their own words, how the sexual harassment made them feel is challenging. Although past results are not a prediction of what might happen on your case, we recently resolved a sexual assault case by a coworker for $275,000, and a case for a restaurant manager who complained her subordinates were fired and received more than $250,000. It is true that we are picky about the cases we take. We only take cases if we feel they can be won. Unlike some law firms, we do whatever we can to avoid subjecting our clients to humiliating losses at arbitration or trial because they did not have a case to begin with. Even if we are not able to take your case, we may be able to refer it to a less selective law firm. ## **LAWYER FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT NEAR ME** The victim of sexual harassment should have an initial face-to-face meeting with their sexual harassment lawyers. The sexual harassment attorney needs to evaluate whether the client will be perceived as being honest. The client may want to see whether the sexual harassment lawyer is knowledgeable, compassionate, realistic, and capable of winning the case. Today, many law firms sign up their sexual harassment clients by email. While this is not the preferred method of new client retention, it may be more important to obtain a sexual harassment attorney in a timely manner than stress out about driving to the sexual harassment lawyer’s office in traffic, or childcare arrangements that might have to be made. Our sexual harassment lawyers will go to lengths to accommodate our clients’ schedules. We are more concerned with you, how you feel, what we can do for you, and how quickly action should be taken. Reach out to us at (951) 367-1000 to hire to a sexual harassment law firm who only represents employees Being able to walk into the office of a local sexual harassment lawyer after going to the market might sound good, but we caution that typically the best employee sexual harassment attorneys who work on a contingency are not around the corner from the employee. If you live in Moreno Valley there are not any big time, established, successful sexual harassment lawyers in Moreno Valley, California. It is a bedroom community far from the main Riverside Courthouse for civil cases. The same is true for residents of Corona, California. It is too far from where most lawyers who particularize in sexual harassment live. Places like Hemet, for instance, generally lack the type of office space, or trained legal professionals, that attract a law firm holding itself out as experienced in representing sexually harassed employees. Bedroom communities like Norco, California simply do not have offices filled with local sexual harassment lawyers. The same can be said for Murrieta, California and even the Desert Communities. Employees in Riverside County need to travel to a sexual harassment lawyer in Riverside, maybe even Los Angeles, or Orange County. It is better to find the right sexual harassment lawyer than to focus on whether it is a local sexual harassment lawyer. Clients seeking sexual harassment lawyers must consider: - **• The lawyer’s interest in the case** - **• Whether the lawyer does cases other than representing employees** - **How serious the lawyer is about sexual harassment** - **• The lawyer’s ability to talk to the client and make them feel comfortable** - **• What kind of results the lawyer is capable of getting** - **• The lawyer’s overall experience in terms of years in practice, years representing sexual harassment victims, and commitment to the particulars of the case** - **• Whether the lawyer has the same goals you have. Several big time sexual harassment lawyers seem more interested in media appearances than achieving results for the client in an efficient manner or period of time** ### **SUE FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT** Sexual harassment includes verbal acts, physical acts, and written acts such as text messages, emails, or letters. Although it is not required that there be witnesses to the sexual harassment, witnesses often put the sexual harassment lawsuit into a different zone. It might be easier to win the lawsuit if there are witnesses. As a result, the sexual harassment lawsuit might settle for more than if it was the sexual harassment victim’s word against the sexual harrasser. These days many sexual harassment lawsuits are proven through text messages, or emails. If at all possible, come prepared to your initial meeting with a sexual harassment lawyer by having any written proof of sexual harassment available. Our sexual harassment law firm has an IT staff who can assist in getting text messages off a phone. Our law firm exists so we can help victims of sexual harassment by bringing lawsuits for sexual harassment. There is a very low chance an employer will settle a sexual harassment case for fair value before a lawsuit is filed. By using the litigation process it is possible to take depositions of witnesses to the sexual harassment. It is also possible to take the deposition of whoever allegedly investigated the sexual harassment. The investigator may be proven incompetent. The sexual harrasser, in deposition, may be proven to be a liar or a completely unlikeable witness. The filing of the sexual harassment lawsuit also allows the employee sexual harassment attorney to obtain documents. Relevant documents include documents from any sexual harassment investigations, including witness statements taken by the employer. This may smoke out witnesses. Documents showing whether the sexual harrasser was disciplined are important for many reasons including to prove improper remedial measures were taken, and maybe even the fact punitive damages are warranted. Our experienced sexual harassment law firm will make the lawsuit process as easy on you as possible. Our slogan is HIRE US AND MAKE YOUR EMPLOYMENT PROBLEM OURS. This means you have somebody on your side fighting your issues. Hopefully, this will help you think about other things and go about your normal life. Suing for sexual harassment can result in: • The employer deciding to fire the sexual harrasser • Monetary recovery for the victim of sexual harassment • A feeling the victim of sexual harassment is taking action • Vindication of rights and a restoration of dignity Call (951) 367-1000 to Start Your Sexual Harassment Case ## Our Firm: No Upfront Fees or Costs ### Contingency Fee Representation All employment cases for employees are taken on a **contingency basis**.
