About Our Firm

Dedicated to Workplace Justice

Since 1995, our wage and hour attorneys have fought to ensure workers get the pay they deserve. We've recovered over $300 million in unpaid wages and damages for employees across the country. Employers often try to cut corners – paying a salary when overtime should be owed, forcing people to work off-the-clock, misclassifying employees as contractors, or skimming tips. No matter the tactic, if your employer denied you fair pay, we're here to help you take action.

Success Stories

Results That Matter

We've helped thousands of employees recover the wages they deserve. Here's what our clients say.

"I had a great experience working with Tim Prol and his paralegal, Cassandra. From start to finish, they were both incredibly professional, responsive, and easy to work with. Tim made a stressful and unfamiliar process feel manageable, and I always felt like I was in capable hands. Cassandra was equally helpful, friendly, organized, and on top of every detail. While I hope I never need legal assistance in this type of situation again, I would return to Tim and his team without hesitation. Highly recommend."

"I cannot begin to thank my lawyer and her paralegal for their commitment, focus, honesty and success in helping me with my discrimination case. The outcome I was hoping for was achieved by my team at Smith Law Group and I would encourage anyone who was needlessly discriminated against to give them a call. You will not be disappointed."
