What KJT Law Group Can Do for You After Wage Violations

We handle every aspect of your claim.

Wage violations can disrupt your life, your income, and your stability. You can hold your employer liable, but it can be difficult to build a case while worrying about how you’ll stay afloat. Our team is here to take that burden off your shoulders. When you come to KJT Law Group, we look closely at your situation, explain your rights in clear terms, and build a legal strategy tailored to your goals.

Here’s what we do for you:

  • Listen to your story: When you tell us your story, we will determine how your employer violated your rights and then obtain evidence to back that up.
  • Investigate your case: We review time records, pay stubs, schedules, job duties, and classification documents to determine exactly how your employer violated wage laws.
  • Gather and preserve evidence: Our team collects the proof needed to show unpaid wages, missed breaks, or improper pay practices.
  • Calculate your full damages: This includes unpaid overtime, missed meal and rest breaks, minimum-wage gaps, and any compensation you were denied.
  • Establish misclassification: If you were labeled “exempt” or treated as an “independent contractor,” we evaluate whether the classification was legal.
  • Handle every step of your claim: Whether your case goes through negotiation, mediation, arbitration, or trial, we manage the entire process so you don’t face your employer alone.

We handle all types of wage and hour violationsincluyendo:

  • Unpaid or underpaid overtime
  • Impago del salario mínimo
  • Missing or shortened meal and rest breaks
  • Off-the-clock work
  • Partial wage payments
  • Improper tip or tip-out practices
  • Misclassification as exempt or as an independent contractor

No matter how your employer violated your rights, we roll up our sleeves and fight for every cent you earned.

What You Can Recover in a Wage and Hour Case

You can recover every dollar your employer failed to pay you.

Depending on your case, your recovery may include:

  • Unpaid overtime at time and a half
  • Compensation for missed meal and rest breaks
  • The difference between what you were paid and California’s minimum wage
  • The gap between your contracted wage and your actual pay
  • Any wages you earned but were not paid for

Our team calculates the full extent of your damages so you receive the pay you worked for, not just what your employer decided to give you.

To understand the real impact of a successful wage and hour claim, here are examples of the resultados our team has achieved for workers across California:

  • $6,9 millones for employees of a nationwide department store for unpaid wages, overtime, and meal and rest break violations
  • $1,8 millones class action settlement for overtime and rest and meal period claims
  • $1.4 million class action settlement for unpaid overtime and meal and rest period claims
  • $1 millones for employees forced to work off the clock
  • $1 millones for janitorial workers who were consistently underpaid and denied meal breaks

While no attorney can guarantee a future result, these outcomes show how committed we are to recovering what our clients deserve.

Your Rights Under Federal and California Wage Laws

Your right to be paid fairly for the work you do is protected not only by strong California labor laws but also by the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The FLSA sets the federal rules for minimum wage, overtime pay, and worker classification. Refusing to pay you at least minimum wage or failing to pay overtime is a direct violation of this federal law. California’s protections go even further, giving workers stronger rights and higher wage standards. If your employer ignored either set of laws, our team can hold them accountable and pursue the full compensation you are owed.

Preguntas frecuentes

Can I Get Fired for Filing a Wage Claim?

No. It is illegal for your employer to fire you, demote you, cut your hours, or retaliate in any way because you filed a wage and hour claim or reported a violation. If you believe you were fired for speaking up, contact us immediately. Our wrongful termination attorneys will seek justice on your behalf.

What Does It Cost to Hire a Wage and Hour Lawyer?

We handle wage and hour cases on a contingency fee basis. You pay no upfront costs or hourly fees. Our firm only gets paid if we recover money for you. If we don’t win, you don’t owe us anything. This allows employees to pursue justice without worrying about legal expenses.

How Do I Know if My Employer Is Violating Wage Laws?

Common signs include:
• You’re not paid overtime after eight hours a day or 40 hours a week.
• You’re denied meal or rest breaks.
• You’re asked to work off the clock.
• Your paycheck seems short or is missing hours.
• You’re labeled an “independent contractor” or “exempt” when your job doesn’t match the legal definition.
• You’re paid below California’s minimum wage or subjected to improper deductions.

If something feels off with your pay, it’s worth getting a review from a wage and hour attorney.
