Wage Theft Lawyers Get the Pay You Earned
Wage theft costs American workers billions of dollars every year. If your employer failed to pay you what you earned, a wage theft lawyer from YesLawyer can help you recover unpaid wages, overtime, tips, commissions, and penalties. Federal and state laws require employers to pay workers fairly. Get a free case evaluation today with no upfront costs.
Common Types of Wage Theft
Wage theft takes many forms. A wage theft lawyer can help if your employer is guilty of any of these violations:
- Not paying overtime for hours worked over 40 per week as required by the FLSA
- Paying below the federal or state minimum wage
- Requiring off-the-clock work before, during, or after shifts
- Stealing or misallocating tips that belong to employees
- Misclassifying employees as independent contractors to avoid paying benefits and overtime
- Failing to pay out earned commissions, bonuses, or final paychecks after termination
Under the FLSA, you may be entitled to double your unpaid wages plus attorney fees. State laws may provide additional penalties. Get a free evaluation from a YesLawyer wage theft lawyer today.
