How do I get paid for all those hours I put in?

You might be surprised to learn how often Oklahoma workers stay at a job doing work for which they aren't getting paid. We hear from them often. Most people stay in situations like this because they can't find other employment; they are worried if they leave, they won't get paid for the time they have put in; or they don't want to leave an employer who needs their skills.

Whatever the reason may be, our lawyers can help unpaid and underpaid workers resolve wage disputes. In some cases, an employment class action may be warranted if there are a number of workers in similar circumstances with the same employer.

Wage and Hour Disputes

We regularly represent clients in the following types of wage and overtime law disputes:

• Unpaid overtime
• Underpaid misclassified employees
• Misclassified exempt and nonexempt employees (resulting in denied eligibility for overtime wages)
• Workers that have similar duties but have different pay
• Other wage disputes

Employment Class Actions

Many times, workers are surprised to learn that many of their coworkers are suffering the same injustice. Failure to pay overtime and other unfair labor practices are often the result of a company-wide policy. Therefore, multiple employees or even thousands of employees of the company are being cheated out of fair wages - and have been for months or years. A class action lawsuit is often necessary when there are numerous plaintiffs.

In order to succeed in a class action lawsuit involving wage and hour disputes, it is essential to have a lawyer who is experienced handling such complex disputes. Our employment law attorneys are accustomed to the unique process of class action claims and the depth of discovery and documentation that is necessary to succeed.
