Sexual harassment in California involves unwanted sexual advances, or visual, verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature. Some examples of sexual harassment include leering, sexual gestures, showing an employee sexual photographs, cartoons or posters or objects of a sexual nature, unwanted touching, assault, battery of a sexual nature, impeding or blocking movement, sexual comments, slurs, epithets or jokes, using sexually degrading speech, making comments about someone’s body, offering work benefits for sexual acts or favors, and, threatening or taking retaliatory action after receipt of a negative response to unwanted sexual advances. Sexual harassment can be broken down into two different classifications:

Quid Pro Quo Sexual Harassment - involves the exchange of workplace benefits for sexual favors or the request for the exchange of benefits for sexual favors. For example, if a supervisor said “sleep with me and I will give you a raise” then you would, unfortunately, be experiencing illegal quid pro quo sexual harassment.
Hostile Work Environment Sexual Harassment - consists of conduct that is pervasive or severe. The conduct does not necessarily have to be directed at an individual employee, but it does have to be something that creates a hostile work environment such as unwelcome sexual advances, conduct or comments. This type of harassment is differentiated from quid pro quo harassment because there is no exchange of a benefit or detriment for sexual favors such as a promotion. In this situation an employee often suffers from a demotion, termination or denial of other benefits, usually for reporting the problem. An employer can escape liability if it can show that it had no knowledge of the employee being harassed or if the employer took corrective action and promptly remedied the problem.

Testimonials

Hired this firm to handle a sensitive issue & they did a good job. I really liked working with George R., the lawyer assigned to my case. He gave me his personal cell & had an assistant I can call. Only issue was the office is located in a high traffic area and parking in the building is expensive (they don't validate). Really good experience overall. Just good people.

S.MLos Angeles, CA

By far on of the best firms I have ever been to. My husband and I went to their offices seeking assistance and they heard us out on everything we had to say! Their professionalism and customer service is amazing. They kept us updated everystep of the way, if it wasn't for their efficiency I dont know where my husband would be today, nor how my children wouldve felt without their father. Thank you Matian Firm for giving my family hope and another chance at a life.

Estela F.Irvine, CA

A heartfelt thank you to George Rosenstock at La Liga Defensora for all his help and dedication when my father (a senior citizen) was wrongfully accused in a situation that was blown out of proportion. He certainly made a difficult time for my family less stressful and we are eternally grateful for his service and professionalism in helping us to quickly resolve the matter. I highly recommend this group without reservation. Estamos muy agradecidos con la ayuda y el apoyo que nos brindaron durante un momento muy difícil para nuestra familia. Servicio excelente y profesionales muy capacitados! Los recomiendo!

Mags G.Diamond Bar, CA

I am beyond happy with the service that I received at La Liga Defensora. Shawn is an amazing lawyer and his paralegal Zoila Fernandez is great. They helped me with my sister's immigration case, all the process went really smooth, they were always calling me with updates. The office is really nice and everyone there always have a smile and treat you very well. The best part is that I didn't have to pay everything at once. They helped me with a payment plan. I truly recommend them.
