Sexual Assault and Sexual
Harassment Lawyer
Sexually abusive behavior may give rise to liability on the part
of the offending party as well as by those who foster or permit
such conduct to occur. Sexual assault is a crime in New Hampshire,
and may also result in severe civil penalties.
Sexual assault is any sexual act in which the victim is subjected
to unwanted touching, fondling, kissing, groping, and rape.
Sexual harassment which, in contrast to sexual assault, may occur
even where no unwanted touching or other physical contact occurs,
can be extremely traumatic for the victim and is often more difficult
to define. Generally, sexual harassment involves offensive and
inappropriate conduct of a sexual nature, directed to a person
or group of persons. Examples of actionable sexual harassment
include repeated and unwanted sexual advancement, sexually charged
language or expression, posting or transmitting written or graphic
images that describe or depict sexual acts.
The New Hampshire Human Rights Commission (“HRC”)
located in Concord, New Hampshire, provides a legal forum for
those who suffer sexual assault or harassment both in the workplace
and in other contexts. Hall, Stewart & Murphy has represented
victims of sexual assault and harassment before the HRC as well
as in the New Hampshire trial courts. Under New Hampshire law,
the deadline for filing a complaint with the HRC is far shorter
than that of other claims, and most be filed no more than 180
days from the date the last offensive conduct took place. It is
therefore essential to contact a lawyer experienced in this area
of the law as soon as possible after the offending conduct occurs,
in order to best ensure that the matter is filed with the HRC
within the required time period.
The following are a sample of frequently asked questions about
sexual assault and harassment, as posted on the official website
of the HRC.:
