The Fair Labor Standards Act (FSLA) and certain state wage and hour laws ensure workers are paid fairly. Employers sometimes misclassify an employee as exempt, or insist they work "off the clock," failing to pay an employee fairly for the work they perform. An employee may have a claim under the FSLA if, for instance, meal and work breaks are not paid correctly, if the employee works overtime without compensation or if they are denied vacation and sick time.
FSLA cases are often difficult and complex. Depending on the particular facts of your situation and your specific goals, Lewis, Feldman, Lehane & McAtee, LLC will work with you to negotiate with your employer, file a Charge of Discrimination with the appropriate federal, state or local agency, and represent you in federal or state court.
