We are currently conducting a nationwide investigation of potential federal law violations for Oil and Gas Companies, Energy Services Companies and Drilling Companies' alleged failure to pay overtime wages to Daily Rate Oilfield Operators and Rig Operators.

Oilfield and rig workers and other Daily Rate workers are often misclassified under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) as exempt from the Overtime Rules. He is often told by his employer that because he agreed to a Daily Rate he is not entitled to overtime. This distinction may be inaccurate. 

Lawsuits on behalf of Daily Wage Workers wrongfully denied overtime wages have recently been filed.

Some oilfield drinlling and energy services companies employ hundreds of Daily Rate workers who generally work 84 hours per workweek; however the companies do not pay these workers overtime. Operators are typically paid a day rate with no overtime compensation.

There are NO ATTORNEYS FEES unless you recover.  

There are no attorney’s fees unless you recover, in which case those charges are paid from your share of the recovery. If there is no recovery, you will not be responsible for any attorney’s fees, court costs or litigation expenses. 

It is ILLEGAL for employers to fire employees for making overtime claims.

Under federal law the employer can be punished with criminal penalties. The Fair Labor Standards Act prohibits employers from retaliating against any current or former employee who elects to participate in any proceeding asserting their rights provided under the law.

You DO NOT need to prove you worked overtime.

You do not need to have proof of the hours you worked.  If the employer does not keep accurate time records, most courts allow the employee to make a good faith estimate of overtime hours. So even if you did not keep your pay records, or did not always clock in or out, the court will generally accept a good faith estimate of your hours.
