Resolving Complex Unpaid Wage and Overtime Disputes

Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), employees have a fundamental right to receive at least the minimum wage and full overtime compensation of one and a half times their regular pay rate for any hours worked beyond forty per week. Our firm is highly regarded for our work in wage and hour disputes, particularly representing oilfield workers and hourly staff. We actively represent employees facing unfair payroll practices, including:

• Off-the-clock work: Employers forcing workers to perform prep work, attend meetings, or complete administrative tasks off the clock without compensation.
• Misclassification: Unlawfully labeling employees as independent contractors or administrative exempt staff to avoid paying overtime.
• Tip pool violations: Confiscating or improperly distributing tips to managers or non-service staff.

Defending Against Discrimination and Sexual Harassment

Workplace discrimination based on age, gender, race, religion, national origin, pregnancy, or disability is strictly prohibited by state and federal laws. We represent employees who have been subjected to unfair hiring, promotion, or termination practices due to protected characteristics. Our firm also has deep experience handling sensitive sexual harassment and hostile work environment claims, fighting to hold managers and employers liable for failing to protect their workers from abuse.

Nationally Recognized Champions and Contingency-Fee Models

Our founding attorney, Melissa Moore, has been selected to the Super Lawyers list and named among Houston's Top 100 Lawyers in Labor and Employment. We handle cases on a strict contingency fee model, commonly referred to as "No Recovery, No Fee." This means there are no upfront administrative costs, and you do not pay any attorney fees unless we successfully recover compensation on your behalf.
