Class Action Lawsuits

A Single Lawsuit Can Deliver Justice for Many

When many employees are affected by the same unlawful workplace practice, filing a class action lawsuit can be the most effective way to recover unpaid wages, enforce workers’ rights, and hold employers accountable. Class actions allow one or more individuals to represent an entire group of similarly affected workers in a single lawsuit, which streamlines the litigation process and increases the chances of a meaningful recovery.

At our firm, we specialize in class actions that challenge widespread wage violations, discriminatory employment practices, and other systemic workplace misconduct. We exclusively represent employees, and bring class actions in both Pennsylvania state court and federal court, depending on the law being enforced.

What Is a Class Action Lawsuit?

A class action is a type of lawsuit brought by a lead plaintiff (or group of plaintiffs) on behalf of a larger group—referred to as the “class.” These lawsuits are appropriate when the class members:

Class actions are typically governed by Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, or similar state court rules. If the court grants class certification, the case can proceed on behalf of all class members, unless they choose to opt out

When Is a Class Action Appropriate?

Class actions are often used in the employment context to challenge:

Unpaid overtime or minimum wage violations.
Off-the-clock work or uncompensated pre-shift/post-shift work requirements.
Misclassification of employees as exempt or independent contractors.
Improper tip practices and/or unpaid side work.
Discriminatory policies affecting large groups of employees.

If a company is applying the same illegal policy across the board, a class action may be the most effective and efficient way to bring the case.

Benefits of a Class Action Lawsuit

There are several key benefits to pursuing a class action:

Efficiency: One case instead of hundreds of individual claims.
Leverage: Greater bargaining power in settlement negotiations.
Uniformity: A single legal ruling that applies to all class members.
Protection: Class members often benefit without having to file their own lawsuit.

Class actions also discourage employers from continuing harmful practices and send a strong message that workers will not tolerate systemic violations.

We Advocate for Underpaid Workers

Minimum wage violations are all too common in low-wage industries such as food service, retail, delivery, warehousing, and hospitality. Employers may assume that workers won’t notice or won’t speak up—but we’re here to change that.

If you’ve been underpaid, contact us. We exclusively represent employees and are ready to help you fight for the compensation you deserve.
