Low Wage Worker Not Paid for Overtime
Background
Settlement Amount: $100,000
Defendant: Confidential
Hunter Pyle Law represented a former nonprofit employee who was terminated after years of providing meals to hundreds of people in need. Despite working seven days a week, sometimes working for as long as 16 hours per day, our client was not paid overtime or double overtime. He was also not compensated when he had to skip his meal breaks and rest breaks due to his busy schedule. He did not receive reimbursement for use of his car, despite having to drive to multiple locations. Hunter Pyle Law was able to negotiate a $100,000 settlement for this client, before having to file the case in court.
