New York State Wage and Hour Attorneys

All private employees receive employment protection under state law and the federal Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Whether it is intentional or inadvertent, of Employers violate the laws that are there for YOUR PROTECTION.  Sometimes it is an honest mistake.  However, more frequently, it is intentional and driven by Employer greed in an effort to maximize profits while taking advantage of the workers.  Either way, the common theme is that we work hard to ensure you get what you deserve.  You earned it!

Our experienced employee lawyers take great pride in building strong relationships with our clients. We become as invested in our clients’ successes as they are, and we know that these relationships help build strong cases against employers who have violated state or federal laws for:

• Failure to pay overtime
• Failure to pay agreed wages
• Failure to pay final check on time
• Failure to pay minimum wage
• Failure to pay a base wage and instead have an employee work on “tips only”
• Failure to allow employees to keep the tips they earned and have illegal tip sharing
• Failure to properly classify an employee (exempt vs. non-exempt)
• Failure to provide proper meal and break times
• Failure to pay vacation time
• Failure to maintain time and payroll records
• Failure to pay for travel time
• Failure to appropriately track bonuses or commissions
• Requiring “off the clock” time from employees
• Taking retaliatory action against employees who raise pay concerns

If your employer has committed any of the items listed above, or any other wage-and-hour related item, reach out to our law firm immediately. We can help you start the process of recuperating your lost pay.
