Cleveland Overtime Pay Attorneys

Unpaid Overtime Lawyers

Time is money and employers in today's society are trying to get more and more out of their employees. Many employees find themselves being forced to work more hours per day or per week but are not getting paid the overtime they deserve. Unfortunately, some employers do not have their workers’ best interests in mind. They avoid federal and state overtime laws, structure the schedules to make overtime hours appear as regular time, and possibly even intimidate employees who speak out against the abusive pay practices.

If you find yourself working overtime and not getting properly paid, take immediate action. Our attorneys at Novak & Pavlik have been providing aggressive employment law representation to clients in Cleveland, Akron and all of the surrounding Ohio communities for over 75 years. We strongly believe in the rights of employees and advocate for the overtime pay they deserve.

Failure to Pay Overtime Wages

Failure to pay overtime often occurs at companies and businesses with hefty workloads and a lack of the proper number of staffers to handle the workloads. Some employers in certain fields have begun to take advantage or have been taking advantage of their employees’ large workloads in order to schedule more time off-the-clock or pay overtime as standard time.

Employees who have been denied their rightful overtime pay often do not think they have anywhere to turn. However, this is not the case. State and federal governments are coming down on employers who cheat their workers out of overtime, and law-breaking companies are finding that they are seen negatively by the public, resulting in potential losses for the business.

Denial of Overtime Pay

If you are being asked to work overtime hours for which you are not being properly paid, if your employer is threatening to fire you for failing to comply with their overtime requirements, we can help you fight the injustice that is occurring.
