Legal Question in Employment Law in Colorado

Some of us were advised that we would no longer be exempt employees because of the outcome of the Hewitt and AT&T lawsuits for overtime pay. If our employer feels like they need to change us to non-exempt, should we file a lawsuit for the overtime pay that we never received because of being exempt?

Side note - other employees with the same exact duties were left at exempt status

You should talk to an employment lawyer regarding the misclassification issues and whether you should be compensated. Whether this suit makes sense depends on more facts.
