  • Meal and rest period violations 
  • Overtime pay/off-the-clock claims 
  • Reimbursement of business expenses 
  • Improper wage or commission deductions 
  • Unlawful bonus plans

  • Private attorney general actions ("PAGA") 
  • Other cases arising under state and federal wage and hour laws
