Workplace Justice For Illinois Workers
USA Employment Lawyers assists clients throughout Illinois with wage and hour issues. Illinois requires employers to pay one of the highest minimum wages in the country, and we hold companies accountable when they underpay, skim tips, or deny the overtime workers have earned.
Illinois law is on your side,
and so are we.
We represent workers across Illinois, including Chicago, Rockford, and surrounding communities, in restaurant, service, and construction jobs where wage violations are common. Under the Illinois Wage Payment and Collection Act, employees can recover unpaid minimum wages, overtime, and improperly handled tips. Workers in Illinois have up to several years to file for unpaid wages, giving us real room to pursue back pay and hold employers responsible for breaking state and federal law.
