    When you put in an honest day of work, you expect to get paid a fair value for your contributions to the workplace. Before 1938, American employers got away with paying employees substandard wages while working in poor conditions. American workers had no guaranteed legal rights to demand fair wages, as well as receive extra compensation for putting in overtime work. At the height of the Great Depression, the United States Congress, at the request of President Roosevelt, passed the historically significant Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)

    Considered the foundation of employment law in the United States, the FLSA provides workers with several guaranteed rights, including the payment of a minimum wage and extra compensation for working overtime. Subsequent federal labor laws built on the legal precedents established by the FLSA, such as giving workers as much as 12 weeks unpaid leave to tend to family and personal matters. Many states have adopted employment laws that go well beyond the legal guarantees written into the FLSA.

    If your employer has violated the FLSA, you should contact one of the best overtime attorneys in Tennessee. Your lawyer conducts a detailed investigation into your allegations by gathering evidence like timekeeping records. Getting legal support also helps you file a timely complaint and perhaps a civil lawsuit if your employer has committed repeated labor law offenses. Tennessee labor laws mostly reflect the legal standards set by the FLSA, especially when it comes to enforcing overtime and minimum wages.

    For more than three decades, Morgan and Morgan has assigned labor attorneys to represent clients that wanted to file a complaint against their employers for violating the FLSA. When you hire one of the overtime attorneys in Tennessee from Morgan and Morgan, you let your employer know that you are serious about receiving the compensation guaranteed under the FLSA. Our goal is to help you recover unpaid wages by demonstrating your employer failed to follow the wage provisions written into the landmark federal labor law.
