Employee Rights

Settlement Agreement

Florida

Asked on Dec 14, 2023

How are damages outlined in a settlement agreement?

I recently reached a settlement agreement with a former employer in a dispute over unpaid wages. The settlement agreement outlines that I am to receive a certain amount of money as damages, however, I am unclear on how these damages were calculated and if there are any additional costs or fees associated with the settlement agreement. I am hoping to find out more information on how the damages were determined so that I can make sure I am receiving a fair settlement.

Linda W.

Answered Jan 19, 2024

Your questions are certainly valid and you are entitled to answers. And you should receive the information before you sign a settlement agreement. Some of the terms of which should be included in the settlement agreement, such as if there are any other fees or costs associated with the settlement.

Texas

Asked on Jun 3, 2023

Noncompete agreement and moonlighting?

I am an employee at a company that has recently asked me to sign a noncompete agreement. I am considering doing so, but I am concerned about whether or not the agreement would prevent me from taking on additional freelance work outside of my normal job. I am interested in moonlighting and need to know if a noncompete agreement would limit my ability to do so.

Curt L.

Answered Jun 6, 2023

If you moonlighting work is in the same business and same market, it is almost certainly prohibited by a noncompete agreement.

Asked on Jan 4, 2023

Can a new employer ask for my last pay stub?

My company was recently sold but the new company kept the employees. Former won’t hand over our pay information. The new company has requested that we hand in our last pay stub.

Moxie M.

Answered Feb 17, 2023

The National Labor Relations Act prohibits an employer from engaging in retaliation against two (2) or more employees who band together to for mutual aid and protection, including raising concerns about lack of pay details. See link here: https://www.nlrb.gov/about-nlrb/rights-we-protect/the-law/interfering-with-employee-rights-section-7-8a1 If the company has failed to compensate employees for work, it may be a violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) and/or the Florida Minimum Wage Act (if the employer and employee meet coverage requirements). Florida Whistleblower Act, Fla. Stat. 448.102 provides whistleblower protection for employees who are retaliated for raising certain concerns in the workplace: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0400-0499/0448/Sections/0448.102.html Finally, if employees have an employment agreement providing pay for their employment, they may have a contractual right to those monies at their pay.

California

Asked on Sep 28, 2022

I have a question about California severance pay

Just received a notice from company for an immediate layoff

Christopher M.

Answered Sep 30, 2022

There is no requirement under California law that a company pay severance to a terminated employee. Your severance pay will be controlled by either your employment agreement or employee handbook. However there are certain things, like paying you your final paycheck immediately that your company will be required to do under California law.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
