EMPLOYER NOT PAYING OVERTIME? CLICK HERE TO LEARN YOUR OVERTIME RIGHTS.

Please complete our short CONFIDENTIAL contact form on the right side of this page or call us immediately at TOLL FREE 1.800.467.4000 for a FREE, no-obligation consultation of your potential wage and overtime claims.


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.


If you work in any of the following plants, farms or factories you may be entitled to additional pay:

  • Meat Packing Plant
  • Poultry Processing Plant
  • Pork Packing Plant
  • Agricultural Processing Plant
  • Dairy Farm
  • Food Processing Plant
  • Carrot Producer Plant
  • Steel, Aluminum, Titanium Plants
  • Computer Chip Manufacturer
  • Assembly Line Workers

Plant Workers, Farm Workers, and Factory Workers may be entitled to compensation for time spent putting on or taking off specialized clothing or gear before or after a shift. This practice, known as "donning and doffing" requires a special analysis to determine whether the employer is required to pay for the time the worker is engaged in the activity.


If you are not paid for time putting on and removing protective gear or specialty equipment for work, please call us immediately at TOLL FREE 1.800.467.4000 or complete our short CONFIDENTIAL contact form on the right side of this page.
