Sexual Harassment

The Law Office of Bell & Bands
West Virginia Sexual Harassment Lawyers

The law recognizes inappropriate touching of any kind, as well as verbal or written communications of a sexual nature, to be grounds for a sexual harassment lawsuit. Repeated intimidation or suggestive remarks create a hostile work environment that clearly violates the vast majority of workplace policies concerning employee behavior. The law office of Bell & Bands takes immediate legal action to collect pertinent emails, memos, voice messages, publicly posted pictures or circulated crude jokes when building our clients' cases. Interviewing other employees and subpoenaing human resources records, we identify patterns of sexual harassment.

I Don't Know what to Do - How can I prove Anything?

If you've been subjected to repeated sexual harassment and your company has done nothing to stop it, legal action may be your only recourse. In order to ensure crucial evidence isn't lost or disposed of, you should keep records of the following items:

  • Inappropriate emails
  • Lewd posters or circulated jokes
  • Your company's policy on sexual harassment
  • Recorded phone messages of a sexual or suggestive nature
  • Harassing notes or pictures left in the workplace or on your desk
  • Sexual references
  • Crude language and behavior
  • Requests for sexual favors

Standing Up for Your Rights

As soon as we file a case against your employer, we put them on notice they're being watched and investigated. If you're wrongfully terminated, subjected to intimidation or abuse, we will aggressively pursue damages for these injustices as well. Working with our own investigators and expert witnesses, our sexual harassment attorneys uncover evidence and expose sexual harassment. We wouldn't tolerate it in a case involving our own family and we refuse to tolerate it in the case of someone else.

Sending a Message

It's important to remember victims of sexual harassment are mothers, daughters, wives, husbands, and sons to people within our own communities. Exposing predatory sexual behavior restores dignity and maintains a level of respect a well-ordered society is founded on.
