If you are in a job in which the law requires them (most but not all jobs are covered by that requirement) and you worked the minimum number of hours to qualify for the break under the wage order for your job, then yes you can.

Yes, if you work a normal shift without breaks and lunch, you are entitled to payment, penalties, interest, and to attorney fees if you win. If serious about hiring counsel to help in this, feel free to contact me.
