Mr. Wager-Smith represented a dentist who was sued by a former employee for alleged rest and meal break violations. Specifically, the former employee accused the dentist of denying her the opportunity to take rest and lunch periods.
Using patient schedules and the former employee’s cell phone records, we were able to prove to the Labor Board that not only did the employee have the opportunity to take rest and meal breaks, but that she was in fact taking significant breaks throughout her work day. The Labor Board concluded that no violation of the law had occurred.
