Wage theft is the most common labor violation in California — and employers count on workers not fighting back. If you've been underpaid, denied overtime, or had wages stolen, you have powerful legal options.
Free, confidential · No obligation
California's labor code gives workers powerful tools to recover stolen wages — often doubling or tripling the original amount through penalties and damages. Here's what we fight for:
California requires overtime pay for any hours over 8 in a day or 40 in a week — stricter than federal law. Double time applies for hours over 12 in a day. Violations are extremely common.
Every missed, shortened, or late meal and rest break entitles you to one additional hour of pay. For workers with consistent violations, this adds up to thousands of dollars.
California's minimum wage applies to all employees, including tipped workers. Employers cannot count tips toward the minimum wage. Violations carry liquidated damages equal to the amount owed.
Employers must pay all wages immediately upon termination or within 72 hours of resignation. Late payment triggers waiting time penalties of up to 30 days of your daily wage.
Tell us what happened — completely confidentially. We evaluate your situation and give you an honest assessment of your options and potential recovery.
We gather evidence, preserve records, file required administrative complaints, and handle all communications with your employer. You focus on your life.
We fight for maximum recovery — lost wages, emotional distress damages, civil penalties, and attorney fees. Zero cost to you unless we win.
Most employment firms settle quickly and quietly. We prepare every case as if it's going to trial — and that reputation alone often produces better settlements.
You pay absolutely nothing upfront. We front all litigation costs — depositions, experts, filings — and only collect if we recover for you.
Your consultation and case are completely private. We understand the sensitivity of employment disputes and treat every case accordingly.
California employment claims have strict filing deadlines — some as short as 1 year. Acting quickly preserves your rights and your evidence.
