Washington Wage Claim Project

Legal aid for low-wage workers with wage and hour claims is the Washington Wage Claim Project's core service. Attorneys handle claims involving unpaid overtime, piece-rate and minimum wages, off-the-clock work, meal and rest breaks, employee misclassification, and construction liens. The project represents workers in wage claims without requiring upfront payment or taking a percentage of recovered back pay. It also explains that employers may be responsible for unpaid wages, interest, penalties, and attorney fees under applicable laws. The project is based in Seattle, Washington, and its contact address is in the Hoge Building. Its work honors Elsie Parrish, whose case helped establish the right of states to regulate minimum wages.
