Are you a victim of wage theft? Do you suspect that your employer is violating the wage and hour laws? If so, you need to contact a law firm that specializes in wage and hour litigation.
Because wage and hour laws are complex and vary by state and federal level, you may not be aware of all the rights and protections that you have as a worker. For example, did you know that the federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour, but some states have higher minimum wages? Or that you may be entitled to overtime pay if you work more than 40 hours a week unless you are exempt under certain criteria? Or that you have the right to take breaks and meal periods during your workday, depending on your state laws?
Unfortunately, wage and hour violations are widespread and affect millions of workers every year. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) recovered more than $1.4 billion in back wages for over 1.6 million workers in fiscal years 2019 and 2020. Some of the common types of wage and hour violations include:
Even worse, wage and hour litigation can be challenging and time-consuming. You may face obstacles such as: finding evidence and witnesses to support your claim, dealing with hostile or uncooperative employers, navigating the administrative and legal processes, meeting deadlines and filing requirements, and facing potential retaliation or discrimination. You may also need to join or initiate a class action lawsuit if your case involves multiple workers or systemic violations.
Our wage and hour attorneys can help you achieve justice and compensation because we: evaluate your case and advise you on your legal options, represent you in negotiations or mediation with your employer, file a complaint or lawsuit on your behalf with the WHD or the court, gather and present evidence and arguments to support your claim, protect you from retaliation or harassment by your employer, and obtain the best possible outcome for your case, whether it is a settlement or a verdict.
