If you have sent a demand letter to the company for wrongful dismissal and they send back a settlement but it does not meet half the demands, example paying for the lawyers fees and only 1/5 of monetary demand , do most refuse settlement and try a 2nd demand letter or do they take companies first offer, keeping in mind this wrongful dismissal is due to a harassment complaint employee put in as well as sexual harassment in terms of pictures of half naked women left on a clipboard for employee to see as the fact they are offering anything admits their guilt?

It is difficult to provide comment without knowing more details about your termination and the terms of the demand letter, but it does sound as though a second letter / counteroffer would be warranted in this case. Either way, I would recommend obtaining a second opinion, as you clearly are not comfortable with whatever strategy is presently being recommended to you.
