Important: Protect Your Employment Law Case Early

You can take several steps to protect your rights if you are working in or are terminated from a potentially harassing, discriminatory, or retaliatory work environment. Doing so might even help our San Francisco employment law attorney deliver better results and outcomes for you.

Below, we have outlined a few powerful tips that could alleviate some of the initial stress:

Tip 1. Avoid Changing Your Demeanor Too Much

You do not want to make self-incriminating statements. Keep your cool and gather as much information as possible to support your case. While it may be challenging not to get upset, do your best to protect your claim by maintaining as calm of a demeanor as possible.

Tip 2. Privately Document Acts Against You and Others

It does not matter if you have Post-Its, emails, or internal memos. Make a point of saving them. This information could aid us in determining how consistent the harassment or discrimination was.

You should also get the contact information of anyone else who may have seen the incident. Ensure that you conduct your evidence-gathering mission discreetly and never try to access documents over which you have no authority. Let your San Francisco harassment lawyer handle this. 

Tip 3. Speak with a Labor & Employment Law Attorney Before Making a Move If Possible

If you are working in a hostile environment, you must report the incidents to a supervisor or human resources as soon as possible. Make written complaints and retain copies of all documents you submit as well as your employer’s responses. However, it is wise to speak with a labor and employment lawyer for legal advice beforehand.

How Our San Francisco Employment Lawyers Will Help You

Most people hire legal counsel to protect their rights. While that is undoubtedly the focal benefit, there are other ways that attorneys add value to your case. Every employment law claim is different, and we will do what it takes to deliver the results you deserve via personalized solutions.

If you hire a San Francisco employment attorney at The Armstrong Law Firm to represent your case, you can rely on us to provide:

Thorough Documentation

Your attorney will begin by gathering records related to your claims, such as your employment contract, timesheets, and other written communications. These documents will assist us in determining the scope of your claim and constructing your compensation case.

Comprehensive Investigations

Your lawyer will also conduct a thorough investigation into your workplace claim while preserving necessary evidence that speaks to relevant facts. We will examine the documents you provide and will take note of any violations we discover. Our legal team will also share this information to assert your compensation rights at the most advantageous moment.

Situation-Appropriate Negotiations

Your San Francisco employment attorney will negotiate with your employer’s defensive counsel to help you get the compensation you deserve outside of the courtroom. If settlement negotiations fail, your lawyer is ready to take your case to trial and present it in the best light possible. The Armstrong Law Firm has decades of trial experience that demonstrates a consistent ability to achieve the results clients deserve.

How Do I Know If I Need a San Francisco Employment Lawyer?

It can be an incredibly challenging decision to know if you should reach out to an attorney for guidance and support or if you should just keep working (or even move on from what you are facing). As a trusted, experienced legal team, you can expect us to always provide you with fair insight into your options. There are several situations where we recommend you contact an attorney – even if just for a consultation – to determine what your rights are:

  • You feel as though you are being mistreated, especially when it continues to happen.
  • You are being negatively impacted at work, and it is infringing on your rights or does not seem fair.
  • You cannot communicate with your employer in a reasonable manner or they will not make changes you know they need to alter.

In these situations, our attorneys will listen to your situation and offer clear guidance on what your legal rights are. The key to remember is that when you set up a consultation with our San Francisco employment attorney, there is no risk and no cost to you.
