Representative Matter

Multiple plantiffs in class action

Obtained dismissal of a putative class action involving 34 plaintiffs on the grounds that the state law claims under the Illinois Wage Payment Act for failure to pay overtime were preempted by §301 of the LMRA and barred by failure to exhaust administrative remedies under a collective bargaining agreement. We later prevailed in the arbitration of subsequently-filed grievances on the grounds that they were untimely filed.
Representative Matter

Multiple plantiffs in class action

Obtained summary judgment in favor of our clients in two class actions filed on behalf of migrant workers in Florida. The Court rejected claims by a putative class of thousands of migrant workers that our clients, the owners of the timber, were joint employers with the farm labor contractors who hired the migrant workers.
Representative Matter

Department store chain

Effectively defended a department store chain in a class action brought by in-store makeup artists concerning payment for travel time and other issues. We asserted that the makeup artists were exempt under the administrative and creative professional exemptions, and obtained a favorable class-wide disposition.
Representative Matter

Various employers

Obtained a favorable ruling in an ongoing matter that the FLSA preempts the application of RICO and certain state laws that might otherwise provide additional remedies for alleged FLSA violations.
Representative Matter

National financial services instiution

In addition, as one of many examples of our partnering with clients in strategic defense management, McGuireWoods represents a national financial services institution in the defense of all class action and collective action FLSA and other wage and hour claims asserted against the organization nationwide.
Case Study

McGuireWoods' summary judgment victory for financial services client in wage and hour/ERISA class action

McGuireWoods' Labor and Employment Department in Los Angeles recently defended one of its financial services industry clients in a wage and hour/ERISA class action regarding several of its employee incentive compensation plans. The ruling by the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California granted summary judgment in favor of our client on all claims brought by three former financial advisors.
