Our experienced lawyers can help you. Contact us to discuss your needs if you think you have not been properly paid for your work, if you are concerned about the security of your pension fund, or if you need assistance with employment agreements. Under the Fair Labor Standards Act ( FLSA ), most workers are entitled to overtime wages when they work more than 40 hours in a work week. The FLSA, as well as Florida law, also provides for a minimum wage. While these principles are simple in theory, in practice the law is a lot more complex. Many employees are misclassified or are incorrectly led to believe that they are not entitled to overtime. Also, when employees leave their employment they may be entitled to unpaid wages, vacation, or to earned commissions. At Sugarman & Susskind, we represent individual employees who have questions about their wages and their entitlement to overtime. We can review the facts of your case, advise you of your rights under law, and if necessary represent you in a legal action. For more information about this practice area, please contact attorney Noah Scott Warman. Your pension benefits are the foundation to a secure and peaceful retirement. As events over the past few years have demonstrated, however, in the wrong hands that foundation may prove to be built on false promises and shifting sands. Employees often need advice on whether their plans have operated fairly and in compliance with federal laws, including ERISA. Employees whose pension benefits have been improperly calculated or denied need effective legal representation. At Sugarman & Susskind, we can counsel you on your pension rights and take the necessary steps to secure your pension benefits. For more information about this practice area, please contact attorney Ivelisse Berio LeBeau.
