Sexual Harassment Attorneys Columbus Ohio
What is sexual harassment?
Sexual harassment is any unwelcome verbal or physical conduct directed at someone on the basis of gender. The Columbus Ohio sexual harassment lawyers at our firm can answer any questions you have.
Can both men and women be victims of sexual harassment?
YES.
What if I am being harassed by someone of the same sex?
This is still sexual harassment, as long as it is based on gender.
What types of sexual harassment exist in the workplace?
Sexual harassment can take many forms so always speak with an employment attorney but some examples include: co-worker harassment, harassment by a manager or supervisor and even harassment from a non-employee. Sexual harassment can also result in a hostile work environment.
What should I do if I am being sexually harassed?
- Notify your employer immediately, both orally and in writing.
- Keep a record of when you told your employer about the harassment and document what was reported.
- Ask your employer for a copy of the sexual harassment policy, if you do not already have it.
- Expect your employer to follow it.
If your employer does not follow it or deal with the situation appropriately, contact an Columbus sexual harassment attorney.
Should I quit my job if I am being sexually harassed?
Consult with a Columbus sexual harassment lawyer before you do so. If you quit your job, this can sometimes prevent you from collecting damages if you file a lawsuit. Speak with an sexual harassment attorney to determine the best course of action.
What if my employer retaliates against me and terminates me for reporting sexual harassment?
Retaliating against someone for reporting sexual harassment is unlawful. Reporting sexual harassment is considered a “protected activity” and once you engage in it, you are protected by law from retaliation. If your employer has a sexual harassment policy, it should state that retaliation is prohibited.

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!

Steve Barber5 reviews
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.

Brandon Hoskins5 reviews
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.
