Unpaid Wages / Wage & Hour Violations

Aggressive Legal Action for Wage Theft & Unpaid Compensation

We Recover Unpaid Wages, Overtime, and Denied Breaks

When an employer fails to pay you for the time you’ve worked, that’s wage theft—plain and simple. California law provides strong protections for workers, and we use them to pursue every dollar you’re owed. Nozar Law, APC represents employees in cases involving:

  • Overtime Violations: Failure to pay time-and-a-half pay for hours worked beyond 8 in a day or 40 in a week
  • Meal and Rest Break Violations: Failure to provide proper breaks or premium pay when breaks are missed
  • Minimum Wage Violations: Pay below the legal hourly rate or unlawful deductions
  • Tip Theft: Tips withheld or improperly distributed to managers or non-service staff
  • Unpaid Business Expenses: Out-of-pocket costs for tools, travel, or job-related purchases that were never reimbursed
  • Off-the-Clock Work: Required duties before or after scheduled shifts without pay

We calculate all unpaid wages and penalties, then take aggressive legal steps to recover your compensation.

Additional Wage Violations That May Apply to Your Case

Wage theft often involves more than missing hourly pay. You may be entitled to further compensation based on your specific job duties and how your employer handled your pay. Additional violations can include:

  • Unpaid Vacation Time
  • Unpaid Commissions
  • Delayed Payment of Final Wages

Every case starts with a thorough review of your pay records and employer practices to identify every violation and maximize your recovery.

I had a very good experience with this Law firm. I started off with a different Law Firm, and things did not seem to be going anywhere, and Mr. Nozar Took over my case, and made it happen. I’m happy with the results. Everything was handled very professionally and I was able to reach him anytime I needed him.
