Class & Collective Actions

Lebau & Neuworth employment attorneys expertly represent small and large groups of workers who have been denied the wages and/or benefits owed to them by the actions and/or policies of an employer. We have successfully represented tens of thousands of employees in class action litigation for owed overtime, vacation pay, pension and retirement benefits, and claims of discrimination.

Lebau & Neuworth is also one of very few law firms nationwide that has an active and successful class-action ERISA (Employee Retirement Income Security Act) practice. Our ERISA lawyers have prevailed on claims against employee benefit plans and plan administrators for retiree benefits, health insurance and plan losses caused by poor investing and/or misappropriation of plan funds.

While most group lawsuits are “Class Actions,” employees seeking damages for unpaid overtime or minimum wage can seek a “Collective Action” under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Lebau & Neuworth is highly experienced with Class-Action and Collective-Action lawsuits, which can speed up the legal process, lower legal costs and bring greater legal pressure against the employer.

We have the resources and experience to go against some of the biggest employers, so Lebau & Neuworth employment lawyers are uniquely positioned to vindicate the rights of workers in class and collective action cases.
