Can a company say they don't have to represent their employee for sexual harassment because they no longer worth for them, even though the sexual harassment was committed while they were employed?

CAN they? Sure. If you are sued as an individual defendant for committing sexual harassment at work, the company could refuse to provide you representation on the basis that there is a conflict between you and the company in the lawsuit, because they will be defending by blaming you. When the case is over, you may be able to seek recovery of your attorney fees if you can prove that they were somehow obligated to provide your defense. In the meantime, you'll have to hire your own attorney. |
