What is an employment class action lawsuit?

In the employment contacts a class action law suit is most often times involving wage and hours issues - where your employer hasn’t paid you overtime, or hasn’t paid you time and a half for that overtime, or in the state of New York hasn’t offered you the lunch break and certain deals that you’re entitled to. If that employer has treated a certain group of employees, say all of the secretaries who are paid hourly, the same way you can take certain of those employees and have them be representative of a class, which is the group of secretaries. And that is essentially what an employment related class action is. It can also arise in the discrimination context. But you need to have a class. In other words you need to have a large group of similarly situation people. My name is Walker Harman. I am the managing attorney of the Harman Firm.

What is a typical employment class action lawsuit?

In the employment context, a typical class-action lawsuit would be one where the employer has failed to, and in some cases deliberately, knowingly failed to pay employees, hourly employees, overtime and time-and-a-half and also violated other rights that are available under New York statue such as your right to, for instance, take a lunch break. If your employer has done that to you and to a group of similarly situated people, say all dispatchers in a company...all phone dispatchers...or all people who clean in the building and work for the same company.

Why should I file a class-action lawsuit against an employer?

You would participate as an employee or former employee in a class action lawsuit if an attorney determined that there was a group large enough to constitute a class. A judge also has to certify a class, an attorney would file a lawsuit with representatives and ask the judge to certify it as a class. Um, you as an individual wouldn't have that right but you would often be advantaged by participating in a class, and if you were offered that opportunity you should certainly consult with an attorney about your rights participating in the class, and then your rights opting out and pursuing your claim individually.

It's going to depend upon the disability that you are left with. It's going to depend upon what happened to you because of the Byetta, and the losses that you have sustained.
