Wage & Overtime Claims

The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) has protected employees since 1937. Under its two central provisions — the minimum wage requirement and the overtime provision — employers are obligated to pay required wages and, for non-exempt employees, pay overtime when they work more than 40 hours a week.

The lawyers at Jodré Brenecki, LLP are well qualified to determine if you have a valid wage, hour, or overtime claim against your employer, and we are prepared to obtain the payment you are owed adequately for the work you have performed.

Our attorneys are familiar with state and federal wage and overtime law standards and will file a claim against your company when they’ve violated your rights. Under the FLSA, it is unlawful for an employer to fire or discriminate against an employee who has filed a complaint or participated in an FLSA legal proceeding. We will promptly act if you believe you have been retaliated against for challenging your employer’s payment practices.

As skilled negotiators, we can often reach a settlement that saves you time and money, but we are always prepared to enforce your rights at trial when necessary.

Regardless of your course of action, our trial experience and track record of successfully handling wage and overtime claims provide you with the security of knowing that a seasoned professional handles your case.
