Sexual Harassment Lawyer

Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Idaho Human Rights Act, it is unlawful to harass a person because of their sex. Harassment can include unwanted sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature. Sexual harassment does not have to be sexual in nature as it also includes offensive remarks about a person’s sex. For example, sexual harassment can include making offensive comments about women in general. If you’ve been a victim of these heinous acts, the sexual harassment lawyers at Rossman Law can help.

Both the victim and harasser can be either a woman or a man, and the victim and harasser can be the same sex.

Although the law does not prohibit simple teasing, offhand comments, or isolated incidents that are not very serious, harassment is illegal when it is so frequent or severe that it creates a hostile or offensive work environment or when it results in an adverse employment decision (such as the victim being fired or demoted).

If you believe you have been a victim of sexual harassment in the workplace, you should promptly contact our qualified sexual harassment lawyers, so your claim can be pursued within the limited filing time.  Sexual harassment lawyers require time to file for sexual harassment since, under Title VII and/or under the Idaho Human Rights Act, the harassment must first be filed with the Idaho Human Rights Commission before a sexual harassment attorney can pursue such claims in Court. While the process might be emotionally taxing, having those that infringed on your rights be held accountable might also bring about personal closure.
