Our focus is to assist all hourly employees recover the pay they are entitled to receive by law. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is a federal law that requires overtime pay to be paid to most hourly employees at the rate of one and one-half times their "regular rate" of pay, when employees work more than forty hours in a week. Unfortunately, many employers seek to save hundreds of thousands of dollars, and in some cases, millions of dollars, by failing to pay overtime wages, or by using methods to cut corners, such as attempting to classify certain workers as "exempt" from the overtime requirements, or by artificially classifying them as "independent contractors" when, in reality, they are employees. There are similar state laws, such as the Arkansas Minimum Wage Act, which offer similar protection. Let us help you protect your rights to fair and legal compensation. Call us today at (479) 494-1800. You will be working with a local lawyer who will devote personal attention to your case - not a big firm who will hand your case off to a junior lawyer. With an extensive employment law practice, we also represent executives who have been subjected to discrimination, or retaliation, particularly when taking a stand against unfair or illegal practices of the unscrupulous employer.
