Wage & Hour Litigation

Wage and hour class actions continue to be the leading type of class action nationwide – by a large margin of 3-1 against other types of class actions. Meanwhile, large wage and hour settlements have made recent headlines: UPS–$87 million; IBM–65 million. Recent wage and hour decisions, such as White v. Starbucks, Cicairos, Gentry v. Discover Bank are raising more questions than they answers.

In this environment, ACI’s Annual Wage and Hour Claims and Class Actions Conference has gained an excellent reputation as the event where private practice lawyers, in-house counsel, judges and consultants convene to gain expert advice, insider strategies and comprehensive updates on all the latest developments in an area that continues to be red-hot.

Focusing on both California and federal law, top wage and hour specialists will bring you valuable, practical insights into:

• Proving exempt v. non-exempt status in the grey areas
• Where the plaintiff bar is focusing litigation now – and why
• Industries facing misclassification and overtime claims: proactive strategies for minimizing damages
• Overcoming challenges arising in settlements, including plans of distribution, scope of release and settlement administration

Plus – if you are new to wage and hour law, don’t miss our workshop on the Fundamentals of Wage and Hour Law – an intensive workshop that will provide you with a thorough grounding in the complex rules and regulations that govern this challenging area.

Take this opportunity to learn from the best and bring ideas back from the conference that you can really use. Spaces go quickly every year – so register now by calling 1-888-224-2480, or registering online.

We look forward to seeing you in San Francisco in October.
