  • Your Rights

    Federal law requires employers to pay employees time and a half for all hours worked over 40 hours per week, unless you fall within an exemption. If your employer has violated federal law, the employer may be required to pay you your past unpaid overtime, interest, an additional amount equal to the unpaid overtime, plus costs and attorney fees.

  • Our Mission

You've worked hard and you deserve to get paid for your efforts. Through my efforts, I aim to retrieve your unpaid wages with efficiency and effectiveness.
