Unpaid Wages and Overtime

Texas Employment Rights Attorney

Has your employer failed to pay you for time worked? As an employee, you have rights under federal and state wage and hour laws. If an employer requires you to be at work at certain times, the employer is obligated to pay you. If you are classified as non-exempt, your employer must pay for overtime.
