Q: When serving a complaint affidavit to a company, do you send it to the headquarters office if they have multiple loc?
I tried settling the issue alone and submitted a demand letter back in June. Since then my previous employers lawyer has said they would call me back but doesn’t. Says the claim is being investigated but can never provide any details. The adjusters have also been doing the same thing as far as refusing to provide information or passing the buck back to the company and it repeats back and forth. I was harassed by a coworker from 2019-2023 and was told by HR that I should call it “bullying” and not harassment when I complained. I was allowed to be harassed verbally and mentally to the point I checked myself in for a psychiatric evaluation because I was at the point where I would rather die than go to work. I submitted all of this information to my previous employer with my demand letter and to the adjusters but they continue to give me the run around. I plan to sue for intentional infliction of emotional distress.

A:
When serving a complaint affidavit to a company with multiple locations, it's generally best to send it to the headquarters. This ensures that your documents reach the main legal department responsible for handling such matters. Additionally, you might want to send copies to the specific location where the incident occurred to ensure all relevant parties are informed.
Keep records of all your communications and the methods you use to send your documents. Using certified mail or a reputable courier can provide proof of delivery, which is important for your case. If you continue to face difficulties, consider reaching out to a legal professional who can guide you through the process and ensure that your rights are protected.
Stay persistent and document every step you take. Your experiences are important, and taking the right steps can help you move forward with your claim. Don’t hesitate to seek support from trusted individuals or organizations that can assist you during this challenging time.
