You work hard, you are good at what you do, and you deserve to be treated fairly.
It should be that simple. But sometimes it’s not. And when it’s not, we will hold your employer accountable.
We keep a narrow focus to best leverage our deep well of experience. We sue companies for failing to pay overtime rates for overtime hours. We shine a light on companies that intentionally pay women less than men, fire sick employees, or tolerate sexist behavior. We also help women who lost their job or are suffering retaliation because of a pregnancy, complications related to a pregnancy, or the birth of a child. We fight for employees so they can provide for their families.

Areas of Practice
Overtime
When employers fail to pay their employees overtime rates for overtime hours, we use State and Federal laws to recover the unpaid wages plus penalties and attorneys’ fees. We have helped thousands of employees recover their unpaid overtime hours. If you have been denied your overtime, contact us for a free consultation.
Family medical Leave Act - FMLA
The Family Medical Leave Act - commonly referred to as FMLA Leave - guarantees workers the right to return to their job after taking up to 90 days of unpaid medical leave. Contact our office for a free consultation if you were denied FMLA Leave, terminated after taking FMLA Leave or retaliated against for taking FMLA Leave.
misclassification
Employers misclassify their employees to avoid paying overtime. Misclassification is a serious problem and results in significant wage theft. Office workers, inside salespeople and drivers are commonly misclassified. If you believe you are entitled to overtime but not receiving it, contact us for a free consultation.
sexual harassment
Sexual harassment has rightfully taken center stage in the national conversation about workplace safety. Did you know that 75% of all adults have faced some form of sexual harassment in the workplace? If you have been the victim of sexual harassment, we will stand by you in your fight to take back control.
equal pay act
The Gender Pay Gap is real, and it denies women equal pay for equal work. The Equal Pay Act allows our Firm to file federal lawsuit against companies that pay women less than men because of an illegal gender bias. If you believe you are being paid less than your male peers, contact us for a free consultation.
Pregnancy Discrimination
If you have suffered any negative workplace event - reduced hours, reassignment, termination, etc. - after disclosing your pregnancy, giving birth, returning from maternity leave, or suffering a complication related to your pregnancy, you must speak with an employment attorney. Do not allow any employer to convince you that it is OK to treat you differently before, during or after your pregnancy.
