Los Angeles Hostile Work Environment Lawyer

A Los Angeles hostile work environment lawyer will be able to help you if you feel that you have been harassed in a hostile work environment. But if you are harassed at work, should you turn to a lawyer or just go to your supervisor?

That can be tough to call, especially since hiring a lawyer can be both stressful and expensive. You’ll want to go to a lawyer, however, if your supervisor knew of the harassment that was being done against you, if they actually observed you being harassed and chose to do nothing about it, if you filed a harassment complaint to your supervisor and they did nothing about it, if they could have learned about the harassment but didn’t, if they ignored any complaints you told them about, or if they have failed to take proper action regarding your harassment, even if they found the harassment to be true and/or liable.

There are also certain requirements that you will have to meet in order to be eligible for hostile work environment legal action and a Los Angeles hostile work environment lawyer may be able to confirm your eligibility. There has to have been action or behavior that was discriminatory to you. Examples of discrimination include religion, if you are disabled, your age, your gender, your race, and so on. This behavior against you also has to have occurred repeatedly in the same mannerism and must be pervasive. In other words, it can’t be a mere annoyance. Lastly, this behavior to you also has to have been severe and have disrupted your ability to work.
