FL and CA litigation attorney, Jack Holcomb talks about the evidence needed to prove sexual harassment. He explains that proving sexual harassment requires careful documentation of all available evidence, particularly text messages and emails. Because perpetrators often avoid leaving a paper trail or act outside the presence of others, keeping a detailed record of incidents is essential.

He stresses the importance of contacting an attorney immediately if harassment occurs. While Human Resources departments may appear supportive, their primary obligation is typically to the company. An attorney, on the other hand, prioritizes the victim’s rights and well-being, ensuring proper guidance and protection throughout the process. By seeking legal counsel promptly, victims can secure the support they need rather than relying on internal channels that may not act in their best interests.
