An interaction with your trusted healthcare provider can leave you feeling confused, unsure of yourself, feelings like you won’t be believed if you complain, or even second-guessing the incident altogether.

Sexual harassment is unwanted or unwelcome conduct from a co-worker, colleague, student or customer. Examples include stalking, creepy comments about your body, making lewd jokes and sending unwanted memes, imposing sexualized dress codes, ranking employees for preferential treatment based on their perceived sexual attractiveness. Oftentimes, a boss will attach “quid pro quo” to their conduct.

If you are being treated differently or less favorably in the workplace because of your race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, transgender status, and sexual orientation), national origin, disability, age (age 40 or older), or genetic information, you may be experiencing discrimination.

Title IX protects students, parents, guardians, employees, and applicants from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive federal money. Examples include rape, sexual assault, sexual harassment, stalking, fraternity hazing, sports funding, discriminatory dress codes, pregnancy discrimination, and retaliation for complaining.

We want to help you fully heal. Financial compensation generally does not provide complete healing. Oftentimes, there are vestiges from your trauma. Indeed, sometimes legal justice leaves you feeling more confused, alone, vulnerable or upset.
