An employment law firm in Southern California stands ready to fight for tipped employees in the Los Angeles area and its surroundings.

BURBANK, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, August 5, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Representatives of the Akopyan Law Firm announced today that their law firm protects the rights of tipped employees who have been denied tips fully or partially by their employers in Los Angeles country.

“We are proud to be able to protect the rights of tipped worker in the LA county” said Michael Akopyan, founder and trial lawyer at the Akopyan Law Firm.

“If you are employed in California your employer can’t unlawfully deduct tips from your wages,” said Akopyan and revealed, “According to Labor Code Section 351, your employer must pay you the full amount of the tip that the customer left for you.”

An employer cannot lawfully deduct credit card processing fees or charges from tips received by employees. Additionally, because tips are left by customers and are not paid by employers, they do not count towards hourly wages and employers can’t consider tips a part of the regular pay.

“Your employer cannot take any part of your tips and cannot deduct your tips from your wages,” highlighted Akopyan and said, “Employees working in the Los Angeles area who feel that they may have been denied tips fully or partially by their employers are welcome to contact Akopyan Law’s employment law attorneys in Burbank to discuss their potential case in a complimentary case evaluation.”

“We are dedicated to protecting employees and enforcing their rights,” added Akopyan.
