Wages, Labor & Employment

Wages and Hours Claims

Federal and state wage and hour laws specifically define how an employer must pay an employee. Quite often, however, employers ignore those rules, to the detriment of the employee.

There are legal consequences to employers by way of penalties or back pay owed to employees in violation of the wage and hour laws. If you are an employee who has not been paid properly for overtime, commissions, expenses, or have otherwise been the victim of illegal employment practices, we can help.

We can determine whether you have a wage and hour claim and whether you may be entitled to compensation.

Labor and Employment Claims

If you are an employee who feels you have been treated unfairly in the workplace, or wrongfully terminated, we can help you determine whether you should take legal action.

Unfair treatment does not necessarily mean there has been unlawful treatment or that you have a claim. That is why it is important that you consult us as soon as possible if you think you have an employment claim.

Unemployment Compensation

Unemployment compensation is money paid to workers who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own.

Any unemployed person may file a claim for UC benefits. Your eligibility is based on the information provided by you and your employer(s) after you file an application for UC benefits.

We can advise you about your claim for Unemployment Compensation, as well as represent you at any appeals.

Employment Agreements

We can assist you in review of employment agreements, negotiation of agreements, severance packages and non-compete agreements. It is important to seek legal advice in order to ensure that you do not give up any rights you may have, or neglect any issues that may be important to you that could be negotiated.
