Sexual Harassment Attorneys in Beverly Hills

Worker-Only Representation. We Know How Employers Build Their Defense.

When you're dealing with sexual harassment at work, the employer's response matters as much as the conduct itself — companies move quickly to document their version of events and build a defense. At Laurel Employment Law, our founder spent years as a corporate executive before becoming an employee-side attorney, and that background shapes how we investigate and build cases for workers.

We represent workers exclusively, never employers. Every case is handled on a contingency fee basis — you pay nothing unless we win — and consultations are free. Bilingual services in English and Spanish are available.

Speak with a sexual harassment attorney today. Call (310) 929-6371 or contact us online to schedule your free consultation.

What Counts as Sexual Harassment

Know the Signs, Know Your Options

California law recognizes two main types of workplace sexual harassment: quid pro quo, where a job benefit is conditioned on submission to unwelcome sexual conduct, and hostile work environment, where unwelcome conduct is severe or pervasive enough to create an intimidating or offensive workplace. Under California's SB 1300, even a single incident can be enough to support a claim.

Sexual harassment can include:

  • Unwanted touching or physical contact
  • Lewd comments, jokes, or gestures
  • Inappropriate or explicit messages, emails, or images
  • Repeated unwanted advances or requests for dates
  • Favoritism or job benefits offered in exchange for sexual favors
  • Ongoing, offensive conduct that creates a hostile work environment

Harassment doesn't need to involve physical contact to be actionable — digital messages and persistent remarks count too. The California Civil Rights Department (CRD) is the state agency that investigates these complaints.

Your Rights and Next Steps

Protecting Yourself — and Your Case

California's FEHA applies to all employers regardless of size and protects employees, applicants, interns, volunteers, and independent contractors alike. It also prohibits retaliation — your employer can't demote you, cut your hours, or fire you for reporting harassment or participating in an investigation. Under FEHA as extended by AB 9, you generally have three years from the most recent incident to file a complaint with the CRD, and one year after receiving a right-to-sue letter to file a civil lawsuit.

If you're experiencing harassment, take these steps early:

  • Document everything — dates, times, locations, and witnesses
  • Report it through your employer's HR or reporting process
  • Preserve communications — emails, texts, and other records
  • Consult an attorney promptly, before deadlines or evidence issues arise
  • File with the CRD if internal reporting doesn't resolve the issue

Workers who pursue a claim may be able to recover lost wages, emotional distress damages, medical expenses, and in some cases punitive damages and attorney fees.

Don't wait to protect your rights. Call (310) 929-6371 today for your free consultation with a Beverly Hills attorney.
