Federal & State Minimum Wages
According to the U.S. Department of Labor, $7.25 per hour is the minimum wage for covered, nonexempt employees. While the federal government mandates a minimum wage, many states also have their own laws dictating their own minimum wage thresholds. As an employee, you are entitled to receive the higher of the two wages. The State of California is one such state.

To help us give your case the careful attention it deserves, we kindly ask that you share your story in your own words rather than sending anything written or polished by AI tools. We know AI can feel like a helpful shortcut, but it actually makes it harder for us to understand what’s really going on in your situation, which means we’re less able to help. Hearing directly from you is what allows us to evaluate your case properly.
