Wage and Hour

The Right To Be Compensated for Your Hard Work

You did the work, you deserve the pay. It is only right to expect your employer to pay you according to the terms of your employment. You also have federal and state laws backing you up. When an employer fails to meet their wage and hour obligations, either through error or intentionally, you are entitled to pursue legal recourse to recover the pay you have earned, including additional money damages, penalties and attorneys fees.  Wage and Hour Attorney John F. McCarthy represents employees in wage, hour and overtime cases on both an individual basis and using the class action process where a group of employees can seek compensation for all employees in an organization who suffered wage, hour and possibly overtime violations.
