Re: overtime
I assume that you mean 25-30 hours in overtime. You should gather your paperwork, recent pay stubs, etc., and schedule an appointment with an attorney.
If you are not being paid properly, you may have a wage claim. If you are successful at the conclusion of a trial, an employer will be ordered to pay you three times the wages withheld, plus your costs and attorneys fees.
Please don't hesitate to contact my office if I can be of any assistance.
