Legal Claims:

If you are a CVS employee or former employee who was subjected to a security search after you clocked out at the end of the day or for lunch, you have a claim for unpaid wages.  If you are a CVS employee or former employee who clocked out for lunch and then was required to work during your lunch break, you have a claim for unpaid wages.

Legal Fees:

You do not have to pay any legal fees upfront.  The lawyers would be paid out of any settlement or verdict if successful.  This is called a contingency fee.

A few examples are:

1. Running errands outside of the workplace.
2. Offsite employee meetings
3. Offsite employee training
4. Offsite company parties
5. Off the clock security checks
6. and many others.

If you have been asked to perform work functions and not have been paid wages for this time, it is important that you explain these your situation to one of our attorneys. The reason is that your employment rights may have been violated and you are owed back wages.
