Confidentiality
Seeking out legal help should always be one of the first things you do. Meeting with an attorney automatically creates an Attorney-Client privilege. This means that anything and everything you say to your lawyer remains in strict confidentiality that is protected by law. You never have to worry about anyone finding out anything if you choose in the end not to pursue any legal recourse. But, talking to a lawyer and knowing your rights is possibly one of the most important things you can do to protect yourself.
Where to turn?
If you are a victim of sexual harassment you have 300 days from the date of alleged harm to file a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against an employer with 15 or more employees for sexual harassment in the state of Nevada. This means that the clock is ticking and it is more important than ever to seek out help and legal advice.
