Wage Project


Legal Aid began its Wage Project in the summer of 2007 and is now staffed full-time by two attorneys.  The Wage Project provides legal representation to workers with minimum wage and other unpaid wage claims, provides outreach and education on workers’ rights, and seeks to remove barriers to employment and wages.   Low-wage workers, particularly immigrant workers, typically face problems that include:  failure to receive a last paycheck, unlawful deductions from pay, unpaid overtime hours, and payment below minimum wage pay rate of $7.30/hour.   For assistance, please call one of our toll-free numbers and complete an intake:
