About Our Cleveland Practice
At Coffman Employment Lawyers, we bring sophisticated expertise to Cleveland's employment law landscape. With over 30 years of combined experience, we specialize in high-stakes wage-and-hour violations affecting dozens of employees. Unlike traditional employment firms, we are focused on holding major employers accountable for systemic wage theft and labor violations.
Our Cleveland practice builds on our proven Columbus success, extending our reach across Northeast Ohio to serve workers from Cuyahoga County and surrounding areas. We understand that many employees don't realize they have valuable wage and hour claims. Our intake process identifies these hidden violations and converts individual grievances into powerful collective actions that benefit entire classes of workers.
Our Cleveland Employment Law Services
Wage and Hour Class Actions
Workers in the Cleveland area lose millions of dollars annually to wage theft, but most don't recognize the systematic violations that could support a class-action recovery. We specialize in identifying these patterns across large employers and building comprehensive cases that recover significantly more than individual claims. Our class action approach means stronger legal leverage and maximum compensation for affected workers.
