Ohio Attorney Representing Individuals Subjected to a Hostile Workplace
If you have been a victim of sexual harassment or other unlawful harassment based on any protected class status on the job, you want an experienced lawyer to protect your interests. You may be reluctant to take legal action, for fear of retaliation. You want an attorney who knows the law and process, who will stand strong to help get a just outcome for you.
At the office of Paul J. Corrado, Attorney & Counselor at Law, we bring the depth of experience and resources customarily found at a large law firm, with the close personal attention of a small law practice. Before opening our practice, Paul spent 15 years working for mid-sized and large law firms. We protect the rights of sexual harassment victims and victims of other forms of unlawful harassment in Ohio and Pennsylvania.
We place a premium on personal service and attention, taking the time to listen carefully to the details of your case, so that we can identify all potential issues, as well as your objectives. We will fully explain your options and will provide you with an honest assessment of your chances of success. We handle each case differently, tailoring our representation to meet your individualized needs.
Our Representation of Victims of Sexual Harassment
We offer comprehensive counsel to individuals who have been victims of sexual harassment in the workplace, handling all matters, from the gathering and evaluation of evidence to the preparation and filing of all necessary documents. We will also be your advocate in all hearings, proceedings, depositions, mediation and trial.
We represent people who have been subjected to sexual harassment and other forms of harassment, including:
- Quid pro quo harassment — Quid pro quo (or "this for that") harassment occurs when you are offered a job-related benefit or threatened with a job-related punishment in exchange for granting or denying sexual favors to a superior.
- A hostile environment based on sex or other protected class status — A hostile environment can exist wherever sexual references, jokes, e-mails, pictures, cartoons or comments are encouraged, tolerated or condoned by your employer.
In most instances, you must be aware of your company's policies for reporting sexual harassment, and you must adhere to those policies.
