I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.

severance offer seems low. I've been dealing with this for about 13 months now and the situation isn't improving.

I have worked at this company for 4 years. My position is non-exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

Do I have a strong case? What should my next steps be?

I had a similar issue and ended up consulting with an attorney. It was worth the $200-300 for the initial consultation just to understand my rights.

Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.

This is a common situation and the law is fairly clear. Under the FLSA and state wage laws, compensable.

You should consult with a local attorney who handles these cases. Many offer free initial consultations.

Been there. Here's what I learned.

In my case, it took about 2-4 months to resolve. The key was hiring an attorney to send the initial letter.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
