Companies Wage and Hour Violations

Unfortunately, we see wage and hour violations all the time. While there are many different ways employers underpay their workers, the common cases our employment lawyers see are:

  • Your employer did not pay the state minimum wage or over.
  • Your employer did not pay you for all the hours worked. This includes if your employer requires you to take phone calls or respond to other communications while off the clock.

  • Your employer did not pay you for your overtime. Your employer may have misclassified you as an exempt employee or independent contractor.

  • Your employer did not allow you to take meal breaks where you were free of all duties. For every day you are not given a meal break, you are entitled to an hour of pay.

  • Your employer did not allow you to take a rest break where you were free of all duties. For every day you are not given a meal break, you are entitled to an hour of pay.

  • Your employer did not pay you for time spent in staff meetings or training (only applicable to commissioned employees.)

  • Your employer requires you to provide your own tools or pay for work costs such as mileage or cellphone use.


If you have been a victim of any of these labor law violations, contact our employment lawyers immediately for a free consultation.

Class Actions and PAGA Actions for Wage and Hour Violations

Employers hide arbitration agreements into employee contracts, barring them from class action lawsuits or other legal action. However, in California, it is illegal to bar an employee for exercising their right to representation. Regardless of your contract, seek legal advice if you believe you and your colleagues have been affected by a labor law violation. An employment attorney will let you know if a class action, PAGA action, or both is the best option for you.
