EDIT: added more context below. Not gonna lie, i'm dealing with a situation in Nevada and need some guidance.

DOGE layoff with inadequate severance. I've been dealing with this for about 7 weeks now and the situation isn't improving honestly.

I have worked at this company for 9 years. My position is non-exempt and I do not have a written employment agreement beyond the standard offer letter.

What are the risks if I pursue this? What's the likely timeline?

Statute of limitations warning: I almost missed the deadline to file my claim. In most states, the clock starts ticking from when the violation occurred OR when you discovered it (the discovery rule). Don't assume you have unlimited time — check your state's SOL for your specific type of claim.

Just wanted to update — I was in a similar situation and the state labor board ruled in my favor after about 4 months. They ordered back wages plus penalties. Don't give up.

Make sure you're within the statute of limitations for your state.
