Miami Unpaid Wage Lawyer
Miami Based Firm Helping Recover Unpaid Wages
It happens, being a team player is required. Putting that extra time in helps the company & your co-workers.
Maybe, you’ve been promised a raise after, but it’s long overdue or told money is tight, yet your workload hasn’t decreased, and your pay isn’t scaling with minimum wage.
In either case, at some point, enough is enough.
Don’t lose sight of what’s essential. You deserve fair pay for honest work.
It doesn’t matter how or when this started. The longer you go unpaid, the harder it is to say something, and the easier it is to let things slide, only adding to your stress.
Please don’t wait until your stress boils over, and don’t do it alone.
Find an attorney who knows the law & who is willing to fight for your rights.
It’s an uphill hike navigating the law and learning what your rights are. Instead, seek someone who knows the law, has extensive experience practicing in the courtroom, and takes that knowledge to help you get what you’re owed.

Knowledge is power. Learn which laws protect your rights as an employee in Florida.
Wage and hour laws govern the wages an employer must pay its employees and the hours for which an employer must compensate its employees.
The most well-known wage and hour laws are minimum wage laws and overtime laws. Other wage and hour laws include child labor laws.
In Florida, employees and employers are subject to federal law (for example, the Fair Labor Standards Act), Florida law (for example, the Florida Minimum Wage Act, which can be found at Fla. Stat. § 448.110), and local ordinances (for example, the Miami-Dade County Wage Theft Ordinance which can be found at Chapter 22 of the Miami-Dade County Code).

Our Process
As a first step, your assigned legal team will gather and review records related to your claim, including any employment contract or offer letter, time sheets, any relevant communications, and any disciplinary actions, including performance improvement plans or termination paperwork.

Once your legal team completes the initial investigation, they will work with you to determine the best legal strategy for your situation. Your legal team will make recommendations and will work with you to formulate the most effective approach to obtain your desired outcome.
After you and your legal team formulate the strategy, your legal team will advocate on your behalf to obtain your desired outcome. This could include negotiating a separation package, engaging in pre-suit negotiations, sending a demand letter, and/or filing a charge of discrimination or lawsuit on your behalf.
The attorneys at BT Law are experienced trial lawyers and will advocate for your rights in the courtroom as necessary.
