Based in New York City, we assist victims of harassment throughout the U.S., Europe, Asia and elsewhere. We commonly work for women who have been harassed or subjected to demeaning behavior in professional situations, often by corporate executives within powerful organizations. We recognize the particular complexity of harassment under these circumstances, where privacy concerns may be significant and preserving the victim of harassment's reputation and employability is paramount.

We also understand that the potential financial cost of pursuing redress for harassment is a legitimate concern. We offer a no-cost initial consultation and may represent you on a contingency fee basis, meaning that there would be no fee to you without a judgment or settlement in your favor.
