"Show Me the Money"
Not receiving that child support check in the mail? Here's an alternative...
 A recent report from KOCO channel 5 stated that since Oklahoma implemented the lottery, over $100,000 in state lottery winnings have been intercepted to pay child support obligations. "In Oklahoma, state law requires lottery officials to first check whether winners owe back child support before paying out large prizes." To read the actual article, check out our blog. In case you or your former partner don't win the lottery, you should contact an experienced attorney to help you recover the back and current child support owed to you and your child.For more information on issues regarding your family, go to www.familyokc.com.

Unpaid Overtime Candidates
All work and no play could mean you're owed money!
 It's trendy to be part of the Apple corporation these days, but the affiliation with Steve Jobs may not be worth the work. A
former MAC technician has filed a class action lawsuit against Apple,
complaining that Apple, Inc. is not paying overtime due to it's
employees. Under Federal Law, overtime pay is required for
non-managerial employees who do not fall into an "exempt" status
category. In this case, the attorneys allege that "The defendant
knowingly had the
plaintiff work off the clock and did not pay the plaintiff overtime."
Unfortunately, this is a common practice with many employers and we
have seen that over time, a claim like this expands to multiple
employees, including undocumented workers (who many employers think do
not have legal rights). Our firm has seen and taken similar cases such
as the one filed above and have settled reasonably. If you or
someone you know is working 40 plus hours and not being paid overtime,
don't hesitate to call an experienced attorney to help you recover your
hard earned money.
Furthermore, if you are a business owner and need help with a claim of
this type or need guidance to make sure you are in compliance with the
law contacting an attorney could save you a considerable amount in
future litigation fees. For more information on the case mentioned above visit our blog or check out www.employmentokc.com. |

Our Brief Tips:
|
| |
Car Accidents: Don't admit fault immediately following your car accident. Let the
authorities do that for you.
Traffic
Stops: Don't voluntarily consent to a search of your home or vehicle. Let the
police get a warrant.
Real
Estate: Read
your contract (especially the fine print...that's where the catch is!) If you don't understand the language and need clarification, consult an experienced attorney that can interpret provisions that will ultimately affect you.
Child Support: To enforce an unpaid child support orderan attorney can help
you get your child support paid and then recover attorneys fees from the
violating party.

Mediation Settles Cases
|
In this economy, litigation can be time consuming and expensive. Today, many parties choose to resolve their dispute through mediation because the process is both confidential and voluntary. Mediation does work! Mediation has, as its focus, solution - not winners and losers. Mediation's goal is an agreement acceptable to all parties which can minimize the hassle of court costs and attorney fees rising.
If you are involved in a dispute and need to resolve your case, call us at 414-2222 or email at mediation@mazaherilawfirm.com.
