Wage and Hour Problems
There are many types of cases that fall into the area of wage law, such as:
- Failure to pay overtime
- Failure to pay overtime at the state-mandated rate
- Working through meal breaks
- Working off the clock
- Requiring off-the-clock duties
- Garnished tips
- Equal pay act violations
Our firm's handling of wage law and unpaid wage issues are part of our commitment to general consumer protection. We stand up beside employees so they are not alone.
Misclassification of Employees
In some situations, an employee may be misclassified as exempt (salaried) when his or her job duties should have them classified as non-exempt (hourly). Employers may do this intentionally, in order to illegally get more work out of employees. Our firm does not tolerate this type of illegal employment law action and works to see that employees are correctly classified in order to get the compensation they deserve.
