Of course the best approach to employee lawsuits is to avoid them because even if you win you lose. However, if you are threatened with litigation the first step is to verify what did and did not occur. Conducting a prompt, thorough investigation can prevent employer liability. While attorneys are the experts who must defend the legality of the facts at hand, discovering those facts requires a knowledge of human behavior.

At RPG, we are experts in human behavior and when faced with a lawsuit. Our forensic work includes: sexual harassment, discrimination, retaliation and wrongful termination.

Unfortunately, even in you do all the right things your company may still end up in court. If this is the case you need someone who knows employment law--harassment, threats, hiring policies, termination policies and other areas--and understands the "lottery" mentality some employees and attorneys have regarding employment lawsuits.

You need someone who can come in and find out what really happened, what are the motivations, and who if anyone was really injured. We are not attorneys, but we will help you and your attorneys defend your rights.
