A variety of different kinds of violations can fall under the umbrella of wage & hour disputes. Unlike some law firms that cherry-pick the easiest cases, we handle all kinds of claims. No case is too complicated for our experienced attorneys! For example, we can assist with:

​

• Minimum Wage Violations: State law guarantees all workers a minimum hourly wage. If your employer has not kept up with minimum wage increases, we can help you take legal action and get the pay you deserve.

​

• Lost Wages: If you are being pressured to perform work-related activities while off the clock, you deserve compensation for your lost wages. Examples include working while on an unpaid lunch break, having to attend a security check or a meeting before clocking in, and being asked to drop something off on your way home.

​

• Tip Pooling Violations: It is perfectly acceptable for tipped workers to pool their gratuities and divide them equally among themselves. However, it is illegal for managers, supervisors, and owners to take a share of the tips.

​

• Unpaid Overtime: Employers have many different tricks to use when attempting to avoid paying overtime. Fortunately, as experienced wage & hour lawyers, we know them all—and we know how to fight back.

​

• Unpaid Bonuses: If your employment contract outlines certain conditional bonuses, your employer must provide the bonus pay when the necessary conditions are met. Withholding bonus pay is illegal and actionable.

​

• Contractor Misclassification: Employers sometimes wrongfully classify employees as independent contractors in an attempt to avoid responsibility for complying with wage & hour laws and providing other benefits. We can help you understand your rightful classification and force your employer to reclassify you.
