No one should have to endure harassment to keep their job. LyfeLaw’s workplace harassment lawyers build the evidence, shield you from retaliation, and hold employers accountable for what they allowed.
Harassment takes many forms, and California law covers all of them. Whatever you’ve experienced, an experienced workplace harassment attorney will take it seriously and act quickly before the record fades.
Ongoing slurs, comments, images, or intimidation that make work unbearable can be illegal harassment and a single severe incident can qualify too. As your work harassment lawyer, we document the full pattern, not just one moment.
When a raise, a promotion, or your job itself is tied to tolerating advances, that’s textbook quid pro quo. These cases hinge on proof of the demand a sexual harassment lawyer moves quickly to secure it.
Unwanted touching, propositions, or coercion at work are never acceptable and never your fault. Our workplace sexual harassment lawyers pursue every responsible party the harasser and the employer who enabled them.
Being demoted, isolated, or fired after reporting harassment is a separate violation with its own damages. An employee harassment lawyer holds employers accountable for both the harassment and the payback.
Employers must protect you from harassment by clients, vendors, patients, or customers not just coworkers. If they knew and did nothing, they’re liable. A workplace harassment attorney holds them to that duty.
Harassment over email, Slack, texts, or video calls is just as illegal as in person. Remote work is no shield for an employer. We preserve the digital trail before it can be deleted.

Private investigation costs, expert witnesses, and HR records. You’ll never pay a dime out of pocket.
We negotiate from strength. If they won’t pay what your case is worth, we take them to trial.
Harassment doesn’t have to be physical, and it doesn’t have to be sexual, to be illegal. Under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act, conduct becomes unlawful when it’s severe or pervasive enough to alter your working conditions. Employers are strictly liable when a supervisor is the harasser, and liable for coworker harassment they knew about and failed to stop. A workplace harassment attorney preserves the evidence, protects you from retaliation, and holds the company responsible in most cases at no cost to you unless we win.
Under FEHA you have three years from the last incident of harassment to file a complaint with the California Civil Rights Department, and once your right-to-sue letter is issued, one year to file a lawsuit. For ongoing harassment, the clock runs from the most recent incident. Government employers require a claim within six months. Reporting early also strengthens your case, so it’s best not to wait.
You may recover lost wages and benefits if the harassment cost you your job, along with emotional distress damages for the harm you endured. Where the employer acted with malice or oppression or ignored complaints punitive damages and your attorney’s fees may also be awarded under FEHA.
Companies count on victims staying quiet and firms settling cheap. LyfeLaw maintains a full trial team with 18+ licensed attorneys. When an employer knows we’ll put the conduct in front of a jury, the calculation changes because a jury decides what the harassment truly cost you.
