Practices | Wage & Hour Compliance + Litigation

Our Employment Law Team uses a problem-solving approach to guide employers through the complex maze of laws regulating non-exempt (hourly) employee compensation issues.

  • Overtime
  • Minimum wage requirements
  • Meal and rest periods
  • Travel time
  • Exemptions for executive, administrative and professional employees
  • Independent contractors
