Unpaid Wages & Overtime Claims
Although federal law and other wage requirements are well established, wage and hour claims continue to be a source of frequent litigation. Our firm assists employees seeking fair compensation and Arizona businesses in obtaining beneficial resolutions to disputes regarding wage and hour claims under both the Fair Labor Standards Act and Arizona wage laws.
Discrimination and Harassment
Our firm represents employees who have suffered illegal discrimination or harassment based on age, disability, gender, pregnancy, race, national origin or religion. We also represent employers who are defending against such claims.
Retaliation and Whistleblower Claims
When an employee reports a potential violation of law, he or she is often protected against adverse action for making the report. These claims, known as retaliation or whistleblower claims, are on the rise. At Matheson & Matheson we represent individuals who have engaged in protected conduct and also represent employers accused of unlawfully retaliating against current or former employees.
Employment Severance & Non-Compete Agreements
We draft employment contracts, including executive and professional employment agreements, severance agreements and non-compete and non-solicitation agreements. We also frequently advise both employees and employers regarding the enforceability of such agreements. If the other party has breached the terms of your contract, we will represent you in enforcing the contract's terms.
Fair Labor Standards Act
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) disputes most often involve the misclassification of exempt and non-exempt employees. Because the burden is on employers to prove that employees should be classified as exempt, employers must maintain accurate employee records of all of the hours worked by employees. If you wish to pursue a misclassification claim, the fact that you have no written records of hours worked will not automatically defeat your claim. We also handle FLSA disputes involving comp time, break and meal periods, and numerous other issues.
Insurance Law and Other Legal Services
Our firm has extensive experience providing coverage and investigative counsel to insurance company special investigation units. Our firm regularly defends insureds against accident, health, disability, life, complex property and casualty insurance claims, as well as insurers against claims of bad faith, breach of contact and punitive damages.
We also provide representation in commercial contract litigation. Please contact us to discuss any of our legal services. Call 480-889-8951 or 866-521-0720.
