If you are owed wages or any other monies by a current or former employer, give the employment lawyers at Goldberg & Fliegel a call at (646) 941-7845. We offer a free initial telephone consultation.

Clients We Represent​​​​​​

We represent clients asserting claims under statutory law including:

• The New York State Labor Law (“Labor Law”), see N.Y. Lab. L. §§ 190-199, 201-d, 215 and 650-655.
• The Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 (“FLSA”), 29 U.S.C. § 201 et seq.

We represent clients asserting claims under the common law for:

• Breach of contract
• Unjust enrichment
• Promissory estoppel
• Fraud
• Misrepresentation
• Conversion

Examples of cases of unpaid wages include but are not limited to:

• Overtime not paid due to the misclassification of a non-exempt employee as exempt or as an independent contractor; 
• Wages are miscalculated - intentionally or unintentionally;
• Disputes over the rate of pay or the amount of hours worked; 
• Tips unlawfully retained by an employer;
• Unlawful deductions from wages;
• Employers failing to pay bonuses that are earned and non-discretionary;
• Employers failing to pay earned sales commissions;
• Unlawful withholding or canceling of other types of compensation including stock options.

We handle these types of wage disputes and claims and, if the employer has been violating the law for a long period of time, the amount of monies owed to the employee can be substantial. In addition to the underlying wages due and owing, other kinds of damages may be recoverable including liquidated damages, lost interest, attorneys’ fees and costs.
