Many people are unaware of the fact that they deserve to be paid overtime for going above and beyond what they are called to do by law and by their contracts. Those who start work before normal business hours, or work through lunch, are entitled to some sort of compensation for the extra time and effort they put in. Employees that work late or on weekends checking emails or texts or completing paperwork are entitled to extra pay as well. Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. retains a number of attorneys with the knowledge, skill, and experience required to help clients in such cases get the pay they deserve.

Travelling a lot for business purposes also means that one is entitled to compensation for their time. Many people travel by plane or car to distant destinations as part of their job, even on weekends, and receive no extra payment for all the time they spend travelling on business. Some employees do not get any compensation for working overtime—with their employer’s excuse being that they are paid a salary or that they are an independent contractor. Other reasons some employers have for not paying overtime include failure to keep accurate records or the threat of dismissal if one complains about not being paid for their extra work. An employer may owe their employee up to three years of unpaid overtime, an additional amount known as liquidated damages, and attorney fees and costs.

Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. strives to help all their clients. “Every case is different. And no law firm can guarantee what the outcome of your case will be,” says the firm, a statement that is echoed on their website. However, it is possible to increase one’s chances of receiving a favorable verdict by hiring the right law firm. Not every qualified lawyer has the knowledge and experience needed to insure a positive outcome in the majority of cases.

In addition to their recently added employee-focused services, Kenneth S. Nugent, P.C. specializes in personal injury cases, such as car accidents, medical malpractice, wrongful death, workers compensation, and workplace injuries. Its attorneys are ready and willing to help all those who find themselves in such situations get the compensation they deserve.

A client named Ritchi Craver reviewed their services, saying, “The team that we worked with at Ken Nugent was fantastic. Customer service and treating people with respect carries a tremendous amount of weight with me and everyone I spoke with was top notch in that area. Dexter Youmans, I feel, should be called out as a fine example of this customer service; he did a great job and was truly a pleasure to work with. Kudos to Ken for obviously making that a priority and a cornerstone for his firm. My daughter’s accident was handled entirely by the team and required little more effort from me or my family other than providing the answers to the few fact gathering questions regarding her accident and injuries. Great job; I would definitely use your firm again, should the need arise.”

“They make everything so easy and convenient,” said another client in their review. “They really care about their clients and take the time to explain everything! I had a really good experience and know where to go next time I'm in an accident. I still definitely recommend to family and friends! Thank you!”
