If you feel you’re being harassed at work, you must act. Report the harassment to your Human Resources department, or to any manager. Ideally, your report should be in writing. Keep a copy of your complaint! Also, you should make notes of conversations including who you talked to, when, and what was said.

Employees are expected to use any available reporting mechanism to attempt to internally resolve their employment issues. However, if your complaints are ignored, conditions worsen, or you are otherwise unsatisfied with your employer’s reaction, you need to contact an attorney. The experienced attorneys at The Gomez Law Firm will evaluate your potential case at no charge.

There are various deadlines and statutes of limitations that apply to the filing of lawsuits in California.  Failure to comply with those deadlines may forever bar you from pursuing your claim.
