Los Angeles Retaliation Attorney
Sometimes sexual harassment can create a hostile work environment — a workplace that pushes employees to their limits and causes lasting psychological harm. Under California and federal laws, many things can make a workplace hostile, including:
- The display of pornographic pictures, cartoons or calendars
- Touching and grabbing
- Sexual remarks
- Sexual jokes
- Sexual motions
If you were forced to work in a hostile work environment, you should know that the law protects you from employee harassment. At the Law Office of Edward Torres, we can help you take advantage of these protections. Our Pasadena law firm represents people throughout the Los Angeles area in employment law matters.
As an experienced legal team, we know that courts hold employers and harassers responsible for damages in cases of harassment. So, when sexual harassment creates an abusive work environment, we take effective action. Our law firm brings lawsuits against supervisors, coworkers and non-employees at worksites or related worksites.
We are well equipped for success in cases involving hostile work environments. Attorney Edward A. Torres uses 26 years of experience as a trial attorney to take forceful action on our clients' behalf. Using in-depth knowledge of employment law, his goal is to achieve full and fair compensation for people who have experienced hostile work environments.
Compensation may include damages for medical expenses, future economic loss and loss of enjoyment of life. In certain cases, it may also be possible to receive punitive damages — special compensation when the sexual behavior involved was especially horrendous.
