We’ll guide you through the process of protecting your rights and holding your employer accountable.

Under California law, non-exempt employees are entitled to overtime pay for any hours worked over 8 in a day or 40 in a week. If your employer is denying you overtime pay, classifying you incorrectly, or forcing you to work off the clock, you may be a victim of wage and hour violations. Yamin Law Group can help you recover the compensation you’re owed.

The FMLA provides eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave for certain family and medical reasons. In California, additional protections may apply under the California Family Rights Act (CFRA). If you’ve been denied leave, retaliated against for taking leave, or faced other violations of your FMLA rights, Yamin Law Group can help you enforce these protections.

California law protects employees who report illegal activities, known as whistleblowers, from retaliation. If you’ve faced negative consequences at work—such as demotion, termination, or harassment—after reporting illegal conduct, you may have a claim under whistleblower protection laws. Contact Yamin Law Group to discuss your situation and learn how we can help you fight back against retaliation.

Misclassification is when an employer incorrectly labels an employee as an independent contractor to avoid paying benefits and overtime. If you’re being treated like an employee but classified as an independent contractor, you might be misclassified. Yamin Law Group can evaluate your work situation to determine if you’ve been misclassified and help you recover any unpaid wages or benefits.

California law requires that non-exempt employees receive a 10-minute paid rest break for every 4 hours worked and a 30-minute unpaid meal break if they work more than 5 hours in a day. If your employer is not providing these breaks or penalizing you for taking them, you may have a claim. Yamin Law Group can assist you in ensuring that your rights are respected and that you’re compensated for any violations.
