Snider Law – Unpaid Overtime
Mr. Snider of Snider Law was born in Texas and grew up in Hebron Connecticut, and graduated with honors from the University of the Maryland School of Law in 1996. He has practiced corporate law, intellectual property and personal injury and in 1999 he was appointed General Counsel of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), AFL-CIO, Local 1923, the largest federal government Union Local in the country, and served in that position for 5 ½ years. During that time, he litigated dozens of Arbitrations, EEO and MSPB hearings and appeals, earning millions of dollars for bargaining unit employees at the Social Security Administration (SSA), Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA – HHS), Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Department of Defense (DoD) and many other Agencies. The Snider Law attorney has a deep understanding of the laws covering unpaid overtime and will represent employees who are hoping that the unpaid overtime will eventually be paid to them.
Mr. Snider formed Snider Law Offices in 1996, was a partner in the Law Offices of Snider & Fischer, LLC from 2002 to 2005, and formed the Law Offices of Snider & Associates in July 2005. The Law Offices of Snider & Associates, LLC is a full service law firm concentrating in the area of Plaintiff-side employment discrimination hearings and appeals, personal injury and Federal Union matters. Snider Law will provide representation for employees claiming unpaid overtime once they have satisfied themselves that the laws governing the Fair Labor Standards Act have been incorrectly applied. The majority of federal employees are entitled to receive Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime compensation. FLSA overtime is overtime paid at 1 ½ times an employee’s regular rate of pay. There are a few differences between how the FLSA is applied in the federal sector and private sector. Snider Law offers representation to employees to recover unpaid overtime and ensure that employers adhere to the correct interpretation of the overtime laws.
Snider Law informs clients that FLSA overtime compensation is overtime paid to “FLSA non-exempt” employees at the time and one-half overtime rate. The attorney of Snider Law explains to clients that although many agencies permit local facilities and offices to treat all employees at the GS-9, GS-10, GS-11 and GS-12 pay grades and above as exempt from the FLSA, regardless of the employee’s job duties, this is legally incorrect and has serious financial consequences for the employees who had counted on receiving the unpaid overtime compensation. Snider Law’s attorney indicates that when employees are treated as exempt from the FLSA, they do not receive time and one-half overtime pay and instead are paid lesser overtime under a different statute – Title 5 – at the GS-10, step one rate. The unpaid overtime will be sued for by the attorney of Snider Law who will represent the wronged employees and fight for just and speedy resolution of all such cases using his broad experience of the Fair Labor Standards Act concerning correct overtime compensation and weighty litigation and negotiation experience.
