  • Pregnancy Discrimination Attorney

    Pregnancy discrimination refers to the unfair treatment of an employee because of their pregnancy, childbirth, or a medical condition related to pregnancy or childbirth. Pregnancy discrimination cases often overlap with legal disputes over sex and gender discrimination as well as workplace disputes over medical leave. Pregnancy discrimination cases relate to all aspects of employment law, including hiring, firing, wages, hours, unpaid leave, training, and benefits.

  • Maternity Leave Attorney

    The time a mother is allowed to take off work to care for a newborn or newly adopted child is referred to as pregnancy leave, parental leave, or maternity leave. The federal law that protects eligible employees in this regard is referred to as the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA). Under the FMLA, eligible mothers can take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave. In some cases, paid leave may be available to you. Despite these protections, many women face discrimination or retaliation. Attorney Dan A. Atkerson can answer your questions during a consultation.

  • Intermittent FMLA Leave

    The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is a federal law that allows employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid medical leave a year, depending on the circumstances. However, the law also allows employees to use their 12 weeks of unpaid absence intermittently. This is sometimes referred to as reduced schedule leave. By taking intermittent leave, eligible employees can use up their 12 weeks of leave in separate blocks of time instead of taking all 12 weeks of leave consecutively. These blocks of time may be as short as a few hours during a work day in order to attend medical appointments or meet other obligations. In other words, the law will allow for your absence in order to tend to protected needs, whether that absence occurs in one uninterrupted block of time or smaller increments.

    In Allen, Frisco, Plano, and other parts of Texas, sexual orientation discrimination laws are incredibly complex and time-sensitive. As your employment attorney, Dan Atkerson can help you navigate the law and ensure that your claims are filed on time.

By identifying your proper employee classification, we can determine the amount of unpaid overtime you are due. Our unpaid overtime attorney can pinpoint the evidence you need to resolve the issue with your employer. Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the federal law that governs employment law, companies are required to pay 150 percent of an employee’s normal hourly wage for all overtime hours worked. Generally speaking, the time that an hourly employee spends working over 40 hours in a week is considered overtime.

  • Disability Discrimination Attorney

    Issues of disability discrimination and workplace discrimination of any kind can cause serious emotional and financial consequences. Both the state of Texas and federal employment law prohibits employers from violating employee rights and from disability discrimination. If you have dealt with disability discrimination or Family and Medical Leave Act violation, our attorney, Dan A. Atkerson, may be able to help you seek compensation for the harm the discrimination in the workplace has caused you.

  • Unpaid Wages Lawyer

    If you believe that your employer has failed to pay you for work performed, you should talk to an unpaid wages lawyer. Dan Atkerson can help you weigh your options, which can include lawsuits, State Labor Board claims, or Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) claims. Our employment lawyer, serving the communities of Allen, Plano, and Frisco, TX, offers consultations to discuss your concerns and help determine if you have a case. Mr. Atkerson has fought against employment law violations for over 38 years and works on a contingency basis, meaning you owe nothing unless and until he collects compensation on your behalf.

  • Gender Discrimination Lawyer

    Gender discrimination is the unequal treatment of an individual or group on the basis of their gender. Common examples of gender discrimination include: - Different pay for equal work - Different benefit packages for equal work - Discrepancies in hiring and firing practices or promotions - Sexual harassment - Employment decisions based on pregnancy, childbirth, or maternity leave Women are more often the targets of gender and sex discrimination than men. The discrimination does not have to be overt to be unlawful. An employer may not have explicit discriminatory policies, yet still may have a workplace culture in which gender and sex discrimination is the norm.

  • Hostile Work Environment

    Bullying, sexual harassment, and discrimination cannot be tolerated at the workplace. If your coworkers are abusive or your supervisor refuses to intervene, you can speak with attorney Dan A. Atkerson for legal assistance. Mr. Atkerson has helped numerous white- and blue-collar workers in the greater Allen, Plano, and Frisco, TX, area.

  • FMLA Attorney

    Employers are required by law to grant employees 12 weeks of unpaid leave for their own health, including conditions such as pregnancy, or in order to take care of a loved one. They must provide all the information and forms you need to complete in order to take maternity leave or other types of leave, along with direction on how to maintain your benefits during this time. Unfortunately, employers may fall short in several regards. In some cases, you might face resistance when you simply ask about taking time off. In a more extreme example, you might return to work at the same capacity as when you left. Either way, you should contact a law firm and speak to an employment lawyer like Mr. Atkerson to find out how to assert your rights.

  • Breach of Employment Contract

    Legally, a breach of an employee contract occurs when an employer or employee fails to live up to the obligations specified by the contract between them. These contracts are most often written, but remain legally valid whether they are verbal or implied. Your employment contract will specify your job duties and the wages you are entitled to receive in exchange for performing your job.

  • Whistleblower Retaliation Attorney

    The term "whistleblower" dates back to the 19th century, when it simply referred to anyone who blows a whistle. In the early 20th century, the phrase "blow the whistle" began to be used metaphorically when someone brought wrongdoing to the public's attention. By the 1960s, the word "whistleblower" took on its modern connotation. A whistleblower is an employee who brings ethical, financial, or other illegal activities to light. Whistleblowing typically involves employees of large public industries or government agencies. Whistleblowers play an important role, identifying illegal activities that state and federal regulators have missed and would have otherwise gone unreported.
