Financial Advisors Who Were Denied Overtime Pay May Be Able to Participate in Unpaid Overtime Lawsuits

The overtime attorneys working with IQOvertime.com are available to review claims from financial advisors who were denied overtime pay after working more than 40 hours in a single workweek. Generally, financial advisors are entitled to overtime pay unless they meet one of the federal overtime exemptions, which are typically reserved for professional, administrative and executive employees. If you are working as a financial advisor and have been denied overtime pay, visit http://www.iqovertime.com/financial-advisors-unpaid-overtime--41154.html to learn more about your legal rights. 

Wells Fargo, H&R Block and Merrill Lynch are among the financial services companies who have recently faced unpaid overtime claims from financial advisors who were improperly compensated. Allegedly, these financial services companies misclassified their financial advisors as exempt from overtime pay. A common overtime scam, employee misclassification occurs when an employer intentionally misclassifies their employees as exempt under federal or state law to avoid paying overtime. Financial advisors and other employees who have been misclassified may be able to collect back pay and other overtime damages for their employer’s violations. 

Financial advisors who were denied overtime pay can receive a free, no obligation case review by visiting http://www.iqovertime.com/ and completing the short form on the home page. At no cost to you, your information will be evaluated to determine whether you may be eligible to collect back overtime pay. Although each case is different, plaintiffs who succeed in proving their employer’s violations may be awarded with up to three years of unpaid overtime, as well as an equal amount in liquidated damages and compensation for attorneys’ fees.
