Frequently Asked Questions
Does my employer have to pay me the service charge customers are billed?
Rules differ by state. In some states a mandatory service charge must be paid to staff, and in others it counts as house revenue that may still affect your wages.
How is a service charge different from a tip?
A tip is voluntary and goes to the worker. A service charge is set by the business, so who gets it depends on state law and how it was described to customers.
What if the charge was called a gratuity on the bill?
If customers were led to believe the money went to staff, keeping it can be a violation in many states.
What records help show a service charge was kept?
Menus, receipts, event contracts, pay stubs and notes of what staff were told help show where the money went.
How far back can I make a claim?
Deadlines depend on your state and the type of claim.
Does YesLawyer help with withheld service charge claims in every state?
YesLawyer connects people with lawyers across the country, though state and case eligibility apply. Whether your claim can be taken depends on your state and the facts of your case.
