This used to be called a "hostile work environment" in any other office setting where the boss is sleeping with an underling. Look at the power disparity between the District Attorney of Atlanta and a contract lawyer with no felony trial experience.
What are the other workers supposed to assume when the person who is sleeping with the boss is given the prime job assignment at an elevated level of pay? The "hostile work environment" is one where the other workers come to believe that their own career advancement opportunities are stifled because they're not sleeping with the boss.
In any other office situation, the boss would be taken to HR and severely disciplined, if not outright fired for such behavior. A higher standard is expected when the power of the position is higher in the organization.
If Willis wanted to have a "private life" with Wade, she was obligated to release Wade from his contract and then pursue a romantic relationship with him outside of their office responsibilities.
The power disparity between the DA and a contractor is too great to be anything other than a textbook definition of sexual harassment, if only because it harasses the other workers in the office who are forced to accept it as normal despite what their own private morality beliefs might be.
Willis should be fired solely for engaging in sexual harassment at the workplace.

now you’re bein’ raycisss...
You raise some good points. Prosecutors in Fani’s office very well may file these kinds of complaints. She is paying her boyfriend $300K+ a year when DA employees are making half of that or less with the same experience or even more...
