My previous employer asked me to agree to not get paid for overtime and expected me, on a regular basis, to work through my shifts without taking proper breaks. I was cooperative at first, because I wanted to be a team player, but after a few months it really began to take its toll on me. When I asked for my schedule to be adjusted, I got fired. JLG got me a great settlement and my former employer even had to pay me retroactive overtime!
JLG Lawyers are the best employment attorneys in LA! I had never been fired before, so when it happened, I didn’t know what to do or what my rights were. But a friend referred me to JLG, and I was able to book a free consultation that same day, to get the assistance I need. They were very professional and quick to navigate my claims, resolving my bad situation by getting me properly compensated for everything I was owed.
After several different law firms passed on taking my case, I was starting to lose hope that someone would review and understand my problem, let alone offer to help. I was wrong. Mike, and his team at JLG, were understanding, took on my case and reached a settlement with my former employer that got me paid all my overdue paychecks – amazing! I’ve been recommending JLG Lawyers to anyone with an employment matter ever since, because contacting them is the best decision I ever made!
In a case that took another law firm almost two years just to get started, JLG Lawyers stepped in and was able to settle my case in just 3 months! They were very understanding of my position, explained everything in detail and answered every question I had, which gave me my confidence back in this unfortunate situation. I highly recommend JLG Lawyers to anyone having any doubts about their rights in the workplace!
