Does your employee owe you compensation?

Well! If you are denied wages, you can claim wages; but also claim damages. Those who exploit wage workers are punishable under the law. You may qualify for supplemental damages with our legal consultation and representation.

When Wage Theft Occurs

Unfortunately, wage thefts are more common than I might think. As unpaid wage lawyers, I can help you get to claim and compensation for instances such as:

  • Employers deny a bonus to which an employee is entitled.
  • Refusing commission to salesperson.
  • Not paying employees for their overtime.
  • Not paying at least the minimum wage rate.
  • Failing to pay tips the employee earned.
  • Illegally taking money from an employee's paycheck.
  • Overtime and not paid.

How Can Mijares Law Office Help You?

If you are facing any of these wage thefts or any other non-listed issues, an unpaid wage lawyer can assist. I at Mijares Law provide a range of assistance including:

Protection Against Employer Retaliation

Despite being illegal, there are chances of retaliation by the employers. They might want to “get back” at you for making wage claims. You have to get protection against employer retaliation by consulting with an unpaid wage lawyer. I will assist you in protecting against unlawful treatment and move forward with wage claims.

Forming and Filing a Lawsuit

There are exceptions like being terminated, staff members quitting, or failing to perform as expected that employers have to accept and work around.

Kristin did a great job in helping me understand a very complicated legal issue. She also advised me, beyond the scope of the issue, on business law matters in general. I would recommend her to anyone facing a confusing legal problem with their business.

Case Studies

Oil & Gas Executive

A company executive had to take several days of medical leave after his son suddenly fell ill. However, while on leave, his company suddenly fired him, claiming his work had recently been sub-par. The company’s excuse that they had not illegally infringed on his protected medical leave did not hold water, and it chose to instead offer a settlement not long after the case was filed.

Human Resources/Service Industry

A store clerk needed several weeks of medical leave after she suffered complications following a routine surgery. When she was due to return to work, her employer fired her, alleging she had failed to submit the required paperwork to ensure her medical leave was “protected.” Kristin Mijares filed suit for retaliation and wrongful termination and negotiated a substantial settlement for the clerk’s damages and emotional distress.

Business Counseling

Kristin Mijares counseled a prominent Dallas physician’s group on how to handle problem employees, complaints of discrimination or harassment, partnership disputes, terminations, or discipline. Ms. Mijares also drafted personnel handbooks, employment agreements, separation agreements and restrictive covenants. In addition, she handled the group’s employment defense negotiations and litigation and offered litigation support to in-house counsel.
