Dan was the only lawyer who seemed to have time for me and knew that I had a case. He was personable, helpful, and most importantly he knew how to win without setting foot in a court room. The process was fast and he communicated with me through the entire process. I would highly recommend his services if you need a lawyer.

I can't say enough about my experience with Dan Atkerson for helping me with my discrimination case. I found him not only very responsive but also very knowledgeable about how to deal with my employer. Because of the depth of his experience, he was much more informed and far better equipped to navigate my case over other attorneys I had interviewed...and the settlement proved that. Thank you Dan for helping not only me but also my family!

In the simplest terms, sexual harassment includes any unwanted sexual act taken by an employer towards an employee. The act may be something you consider minor, such as making a joke. Harassment might also be a much larger action, such as demanding sex in exchange for a promotion or being discriminated against for refusing to engage in a sexual act. Some common examples of harassment include:

Each of these instances, even overhearing a seemingly innocent joke, can rise to the level of harassment if the employee feels the actions create a hostile work environment.
