Areas of Law:
Sexual Harassment
Kresta Daly operates in every case with the guiding tenant that protecting a client’s constitutional rights is paramount. Sexual harassment comes in many forms but the are two common types.
The first is known as “quid pro quo” harassment which translates to “something for something.” It commonly occurs when a term of employment is conditioned on submitting to unwanted sexual advances. Most commonly quid pro quo sexual harassment happens when a supervisor requires you to engage in sexual conduct in order for you to receive an employment benefit such as a promotion or raise.
The second common form of harassment occurs when someone is subjected to a “hostile work environment.” This typically occurs when an employee is subjected to unwanted harassing conduct because of sex, gender, and/or gender expression. The harassment must be sufficiently severe and pervasive that a reasonable person in the victim’s situation would consider the work environment to be hostile or abusive.
Conduct is severe or pervasive when it alters the terms and conditions of employment. Conduct that is occasional, isolated, sporadic or trivial is not considered severe or pervasive. A hostile work environment may be created under the following circumstances: (1) when the harassment is directed at you; (2) when the conduct is not directed at you but you personally witnessed the harassment in your immediate work environment; or (3) when there is widespread sexual favoritism in your work environment.

Civil Rights And Police Excessive Force
Our clients are people who are unable to fight for themselves. For some, previous experience with the legal system has been painful or fruitless — they have no expectation of justice. For others, a criminal record, mental illness or addiction puts them at an automatic disadvantage when alleging police abuse or workplace discrimination. Kresta’s mission is to give everyone access to justice. We do not charge for an initial consultation. In many cases we do not collect attorney fees unless we win compensation.
What are the first things you should if you think you’ve been harassed?
Call us. We want to help you but we can’t help you until you call us. Kresta represents employees who have experienced harassment at work as well as students who have experienced harassment from professors, counselors, or other school employees.
The legal system is complicated. There are important deadlines you must meet or you may lose your ability to file a claim forever. Call us as soon as you think there is a problem.
