Attorney Walter Haines, and United Employees Law Group, PC are proud to announce the addition of Attorney Ted Mann to its plaintiff litigation team. Mr. Mann is a 1990 graduate of Loyola law school and is an experienced trial lawyer. He has focused his legal experience representing a diverse group of litigants in the area of complex litigation matters including class action.

Mr. Mann will be assisting employees who have been deprived of their overtime wages, meal and break periods, and reimbursable expenses.

“With the influx of wage and hour cases involving employer’s failure to pay overtime, I have found it necessary to expand our litigation department with the addition of several experienced trial lawyers, “ added Walter Haines.

With a recent verdicts in favor of the employee in the area of meal and break periods defining such meals and breaks as a “wage” and not a penalty, employees may be able to recover payment for up to 4 years of missed meal and break periods.

Furthermore, recent interpretation of overtime exemptions pertaining to computer programmer and certain IT personnel have come to the forefront of litigation at United Employees Law Group.

“Even though employees are paid a high salary and told they are exempt from overtime, this may not be the case, says Attorney Walter Haines.

With our expanding group of experienced litigation counsel and the inclusion of other cutting edge efficiencies, United Employees Law Group hopes to be able to recover wages in the shortest possible time.
