If your employer is not paying you the overtime or commissions you are due, you may be entitled to compensation equal to double the amount of money your employer owes you. Your employer may also be responsible for paying your attorney fees.

For a free consultation, call 866-569-7398. From our office in Boca Raton, we protect the rights of Florida workers in West Palm Beach, Miami, Fort Lauderdale and throughout the state.
Unpaid Overtime Pay
Under the Fair Labor Standards Act, you are entitled to overtime pay for hours worked in excess of 40 hours in a week or 10 hours in a day. However, some employers attempt to get around the overtime requirement by:
- Misclassifying you as an exempt employee who is not eligible for overtime
- Paying you a salary instead of hourly, even though you are non-exempt employee
- Asking you to work off the clock
Unpaid Commissions
Many unpaid commission cases occur when an employer holds up an employee's final paycheck following a job termination. Employers may also illegally withhold commission payment.
If we believe your case is strong enough, our law firm handles unpaid commission and overtime cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you do not have to pay us any money up front. Our fees, if we are successful, will be paid by your employer.
