FLAP focuses on Employment Litigation, Eviction and Immigration.

The primary goal of the employment litigation work is to recover owed wages for low-wage communities in the food supply chain, greenhouse, landscaping, nursery and snow plowing industries. 

FLAP litigates under both federal and state laws such as the Fair Labor Standards Act (“FLSA”), and the Agricultural Worker Protection Act (“AWPA”). FLAP clients mainly bring forth claims for nonpayment of minimum wages, nonpayment of overtime wages and illegal deduction in violation of these federal and state laws
