If you have a claim, the attorney works on contingency — you pay nothing unless you win. The employer pays attorney fees under the FLSA.
The FLSA requires employers who violate the law to pay your attorney fees. That means FLSA attorneys work on contingency — you pay nothing.
Under the FLSA, you have 2 years to file a claim (3 years if the violation was willful). Many state laws have separate, sometimes shorter statutes of limitations. The sooner you act, the more wages you can recover.
"I worked 55-hour weeks for two years and was told I was 'exempt.' Turned out I wasn't. My attorney recovered $42,000 in unpaid overtime and I paid nothing out of pocket."
"My employer was deducting 30 minutes for lunch every day whether I took it or not. It added up to thousands of dollars. The attorney handled everything in about 8 months."
"I was classified as an independent contractor but worked fixed hours at one place with no control over my schedule. The attorney recovered 3 years of overtime. Game changer."
FLSA claims apply nationwide. Many states also have additional wage protections that go further than federal law.
