Sexual Harassment
Milford, Connecticut, Employment Discrimination Lawyer
High-profile sexual harassment cases have had both positive and negative effects. On one hand, they have served to increase the visibility of sexual harassment laws and legal protections. On the other hand, they have cast confusion on what constitutes real, actionable sexually harassing behavior.
While vague comments and images can sometimes occupy a legal gray zone, crude sexual jokes, sexual threats and graphic e-mails, photos and cartoons, can all lead to a hostile work environment and an actionable claim for sexual harassment. Additionally, sexual harassment can stem from:
- Demands for sex in exchange for job retention, career advancement, or additional pay and benefits
- An employer's refusal to respond to employee complaints of sexual harassment
If you suspect that you are the victim of sexual harassment at work, you should contact an experienced sexual harassment attorney for answers, clarification and, when necessary, full legal representation.

Attorneys Tony Pantuso and Jessica Boudreau have successfully represented numerous people who have experienced sexual harassment on the job. Recent cases include:
- Our client was a single mom whose ex-husband had ceased paying child support. To make ends meet, she took a job and was immediately propositioned by her employer. At one point, under the pretense of a business lunch, her employer drove directly to a motel. After six weeks our client quit, and contacted us regarding her legal rights. We settled the case for one year's salary, which came directly out of her employer's pocket.*
- Our client was harassed by the client of her employer. Upon being informed of the harassment, the employer refused to act. We sued the employer on behalf of our client.*
