Failure to Pay Wages at Time of Termination

Legal Help When Your Employer Refuses to Pay You

Attorneys Leading in California Employment Law for Over 20 Years

California labor laws require employers to pay employees in a timely manner when an employee leaves. Employees have a right to wages owed whether they quit, were fired/terminated or laid off.

Workers do not need to wait for the next pay cycle. Employers are expected to pay all wages owed immediately if they fire an employee and to pay workers within 72 hours when a worker quits. And, payment is not limited to wages for time worked; it also includes compensation for accumulated vacation pay.

If you are waiting to be paid after leaving a job, ensure that your rights are enforced under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) by contacting the Los Angeles, California, law firm of the Bononi Law Group, LLP. We have helped numerous individuals and groups (through wage and hour laws/multiple party action suits) in our over two decades of legal experience.

Has your employer refused or failed to pay you, either during your employment or immediately after? Contact the lawyers of the Bononi Law Group, LLP, at 1-800-641-5548.

Employers who break wage and hour laws upon termination face penalties which include back pay and the accrual of further wage obligations (for up to 30 days). We have helped hundreds of clients obtain a cumulative hundreds of thousands of dollars in wages following refusal-to-pay-wages claims. We also work with employers defending against wage claims.
