prosecuted for theft. If her employer took $100 out of her paycheck by failing to pay overtime, that is wage theft. No matter where you work, you are entitled to a fair day’s pay. To help achieve that, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) requires employers to pay their employees at least the minimum wage for all hours worked and to pay overtime compensation (at time-and-a-half) for all hours worked in excess of 40 hours in a seven-day period. Many states have similar wage and hour laws that may have higher minimum wages and also prohibit deductions from employees’ wages without their written consent.</p> <p>In the face of those laws, employers look for loopholes and excuses to illegally underpay their employees. These schemes can take a number of forms. Sometimes they claim that employees are exempt from the overtime requirements. Other employers refuse to pay their employees for preparation or waiting time. These violations happen in every kind of business, from local shops to nationwide chains.</p> <p>The wage and hour attorneys at Brown, Goldstein & Levy have extensive experience representing large classes of workers who have been illegally denied earned overtime. Our attorneys have represented workers in diverse areas of the economy, from poultry workers to laundry workers, from bus drivers to restaurant staff. We take on local chains and national brands. We have recovered millions of dollars in unpaid overtime and other wages on behalf of our clients.</p> <p><em>U.S. News & World Report</em> and <em>Best Lawyers</em> ranked Brown, Goldstein & Levy in Tier 1 in Baltimore for Employment Law – Individuals and for Litigation – Labor & Employment in the 2020 “Best Law Firms” list. Our firm has also been ranked nationally for Mass Tort Litigation / Class Actions – Plaintiffs. Six of our attorneys were recognized by <em>Lawdragon</em> as among the top 500 plaintiffs’ employment lawyers in the country. Our attorneys are members of selective, invitation-only organizations like the American College of Trial Lawyers and have been selected three times in recent years as “Lawyer of the Year” for Baltimore Employment Law – Individuals or Baltimore Labor & Employment Litigation.</p> </div> <div class="generic-wysiwyg__expander"> <div class="generic-wysiwyg__expander-shadow visible"> <button class="btn-action view-more" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#wysiwyg" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="wysiwyg" data-text-open="More" data-text-close="Less" title="Expand or collapse the content above">More</button> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section class="representative-cases"> <div class="representative-cases__container"> <div class="representative-cases__header"> <h2 class="representative-cases__heading">Representative Cases</h2> </div> <div id="representative-cases" class="representative-cases__clip collapse"> <div class="representative-cases__case"> <ul class="representative-cases__list"> <li class="representative-cases__list-item"><p>Successfully negotiated $1 million settlement on behalf of restaurant workers against the Mo’s Seafood chain for wage and hour violations.</p> </li> <li class="representative-cases__list-item"><p>Successfully negotiated three separate settlement agreements on behalf of school bus drivers and attendants whose employers had failed to pay them proper overtime and straight-time wages.
