Wells Fargo Overtime Wages Class Action

National Class Action Lawsuit Filed

Lieff, Cabraser, Heimann & Bernstein, LLP, along with Lewis, Feinberg, Renaker & Jackson, PC, and Rudy, Exelrod & Zieff, LLP, are serving as plaintiffs' counsel in a federal class action lawsuit charging that global financial services corporation Wells Fargo has a common practice of refusing to pay overtime compensation to its business systems automation and production support workers in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The proposed class consists of thousands of current and former employees with the title of Business Systems Consultants and Business Systems Analysts employed by Wells Fargo across America. The plaintiffs, Wells Fargo business systems employees, allege that Wells Fargo unlawfully characterizes its employees who automate business processes and provide production support as exempt in order to deprive them of overtime pay.
