Legal Question in Sexual Harassment in Idaho

Re: How did it get to this point?

Hmmm...

You definitely need to retain an attorney in your locality, immediately, as you are facing a sexual harassment complaint and loss of your job.

Now, you didn't provide any details, but a lot would depend on whether you in fact are guilty of sexual harassment, or is the allegation false, or perhaps the situation is a bit more murky?

Obviously, if you committed illegal acts such as sexual harassment on the job, your employer would be within its rights to terminate your employment. If you did not, and the employer terminated you on the basis of a false accusation, the situation is more complicated. You would have a potential cause of action for defamation against the wrongful accuser. You might or might not have a cause of action against your employer, depending upon the degree of due diligence they used in investigating and responding to the allegations. Your attorney will provide you with more information.

I strongly recommend that you consult with an attorney immediately so that you can explore your legal rights, obligations, and options. If you wish to discuss retaining my services, contact me at:
