Texas Employment Rights Attorney
Has your employer failed to pay you for time worked? As an employee, you have rights under federal and state wage and hour laws. If an employer requires you to be at work at certain times, the employer is obligated to pay you. If you are classified as non-exempt, your employer must pay for overtime.

Know your rights. If you are unclear about your right to be paid, talk to an attorney at the Van Wey & Johnson law firm about your unpaid wages and overtime.
- Does your employer require you to come in 15 or 30 minutes ahead of your start time to prepare for your workday? You should be paid for that time. If you and your co-workers are not paid for required work time, contact a wage and hour lawyer.
- Are you required to stay past working hours without being paid? Any requirement to be at work means the employer has an obligation to pay for your time.
- Did your employer reclassify you as a supervisor and then tell you that you are no longer eligible for overtime pay? Employers sometimes use false misclassification to avoid paying overtime wages.
- The law gives strict guidelines for determining exempt and non-exempt work. If your employer has misclassified you in order to avoid paying overtime wages, talk to a lawyer who will protect your rights.
If you have a legal problem, you deserve to have an employment law attorney who will listen to your situation, stand up for your rights, and work closely with you to find an appropriate solution. Contact the Van Wey & Johnson law firm for a free consultation.
