Lawyers root for new Minimum Wage Law

Lawyers are rooting the new minimum wage law that passed the assembly and is now being debated by the California senate. It makes complete fiscal sense for minimum wage laws to be adjusted according to inflation and the consumer price index. Other states already do this.

Civil attorneys in California know that many non-citizens are most affected by minimum wage laws. Many illegal immigrants support their families with minimum wage jobs. However, in California, many employers illegally pay undocumented workers or illegal immigrants below minimum wage knowing that they won't speak up for fear of being deported. Our civil attorneys know that even illegal immigrants are protected by employment, labor, and minimum wage laws. In fact, questions about immigration or citizen status cannot be entered into litigation in court and are also prohibited in discovery.

If you reside in California and are a worker or an employer and feel your rights have been violated call our civil lawyers now at 855-200-ATTY (855-200-2889).
