Hostile Work Environment Lawyer Columbus, Ohio
What does an Ohio hostile work environment mean?
Hostile work environment occurs when any harassment or discriminatory conduct has the purpose of or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s work performance, creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment.
The conduct must be “sufficiently severe or pervasive” enough to cause a hostile work environment. Isolated comments are NOT enough. This definition is confusing and is constantly changing so contact a hostile work environment lawyer in Columbus, Ohio today.
Who can report a hostile work environment in Ohio?
- The victim can report a hostile work environment but others who are not subjected to the harassment can report it as well.
- The victim can be someone who is not directly subjected to the sexual harassment but is someone that because of the conduct directed at another person (usually a co-worker) is subjected to a hostile work environment.
- If you feel you are being subjected to a hostile work environment, report it to your employer immediately. Make sure you document your report, to substantiate your claims and for proof that you reported.

a weeks agoRachel and Dominick were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. They got back to me quickly, whenever I had questions, which helped me stay calm during a very stressful time. Rachel was confident in her abilities and knowledge of the labor laws, and she was able to secure a settlement for me. If you ever find yourself in a situation that requires you take action against an employer, I would highly recommend the Friedman Firm. There's no one I would recommend more to be in your corner.

a month agoIf you are in need of an employment attorney, this is your sign to talk to Rachel and Jamie. Amazing!! They handled my case like the true professionals they are! They stuck to a strategy, even when it seemed like it wasn’t going our way and BAM! We get the outcome we wanted. I couldn’t be happier and I will always return to them if I EVER have an employment issue again. Thank you so much for helping me and my family!

5 months agoI needed an employment lawyer to work through a non compete. Pete at The Friedmann Firm was listed as one of the three best rated employment lawyers on a local website. I called him in the morning and later that night he was on the case and provided sound council through a very tense negotiation. Don’t take a chance with your career, reach out and get good council. Pete was very responsive every step of the way and delivered positive results. I highly recommend Pete and his Firm!

8 months agoRachel was top-notch from start to finish. She was responsible, professional, quick to respond to emails, texts or phone calls. She gives it to you straight, which I prefer! She thinks outside the box and is definitely the dog you want in the fight for you. She does not waste time and immediately dives right in to get the best results she can for you. I would highly recommend Rachel and her firm to anyone who wants to get the job done right, the first time, in a professional, compassionate and decisive manner.

3 months agoMy wife used this firm for a matter she had with her former employer. She could not have been more satisfied with their services. They were timely in responses, courteous, and very thoughtful. This was a difficult process for her and Pete made it so much easier by handling all of the details of her case.

6 months agoI called them with some questions about my employment and Jamie was very helpful. I didn’t need an attorney to handle a case for me - only to help me navigate an issue I was having at work. She answered my questions and I felt she truly listened to me. I’d recommend this firm to anyone looking for an employment lawyer. Thank you!

I am so thankful to have had you as my attorney. You have my highest recommendation.
