Wage theft is a serious issue affecting many workers, where employers fail to pay their employees the wages they rightfully earned. This can include unpaid overtime, minimum wage violations, misclassification of employees, and other forms of wage fraud. At the Law Office of Alexander W. Raby, we are committed to fighting for the rights of workers and ensuring they receive the compensation they deserve.

Common Types of Wage Theft:

  • Unpaid Overtime: Employers failing to pay time and a half for hours worked over 40 in a week.
  • Minimum Wage Violations: Paying employees below the federal or state minimum wage.
  • Misclassification of Employees: Incorrectly classifying employees as independent contractors to avoid paying benefits and proper wages.
  • Off-the-Clock Work: Requiring employees to work before clocking in or after clocking out without compensation.
  • Illegal Deductions: Making unlawful deductions from employee paychecks for uniforms, damages, or other costs.
