Workplace Harassment Lawyer in Bergen County, NJ

Workplace harassment is illegal under New Jersey and federal law. If you are experiencing a hostile work environment, quid pro quo harassment, or retaliation for reporting harassment in Bergen County, Jae Lee Law can help you understand your rights and pursue the compensation and relief you are entitled to.

Have You Been Harassed at Work?

It is your employer’s responsibility to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace and to take decisive action to stop it when it does occur. If you have been subjected to sexual jokes, unwanted touching or other unlawful behavior at your job, you have powerful laws protecting you.

Workplace Sexual Harassment Attorney

Sexual harassment is generally broken down into the following categories:

Sexual harassment cases are typically fact sensitive. For this reason, it is important to maintain as much evidence as possible that demonstrates the harassment you have had to endure. Generally, cases in which there is a systemic pattern of harassment have a greater chance of success. Regardless of your circumstances, our lawyers will aggressively advocate on your behalf to help you achieve justice and compensation.

  • Quid pro quo: When an employer requests sexual favors in return for employment, advancement and other favorable treatment.
  • Hostile work environment: When sexual jokes, touching, unwanted comments and other behavior hamper the employees ability to work and create emotional distress.

New Jersey’s Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD) provides some of the strongest anti-harassment protections in the country — covering a wider range of protected characteristics than federal law and applying to employers of all sizes. If you have experienced workplace harassment and reported it without result, or if you fear retaliation, our attorneys can advise you on your options including administrative complaints with the NJDCR or EEOC and civil litigation.

The statute of limitations for a harassment claim under the NJLAD is two years from the last act of harassment. Contact Jae Lee Law for a free consultation. All employment law cases are evaluated on a contingency basis.
