Warning: Beware of Quitting Your Job Before Consulting an Attorney

If you were victimized by harassment, you may be able to recover whether you were fired or voluntarily quit your job. However, quitting your job could make it much more difficult to enforce your legal rights and remedies. Courts are generally reluctant to allow employees who quit their jobs to recover damages unless they can prove that the work environment was so bad that no reasonable employee could be expected to continue working. If you are thinking about quitting, it is essential that you obtain legal guidance before taking acting in haste.

If an employer or supervisor makes inappropriate advances and you reject them, it is illegal for the employer to reduce your pay, demote you or fire you. You have the right to work in an environment free of that type of behavior, and we will work hard to protect that right.
