Frequently Asked Questions

Can Defendant discipline or fire me if I join the case?

It is against the law for an employer to retaliate against a person for joining a lawsuit to reclaim unpaid wages. If you suffer retaliation, you may have additional claims. If you work for Adient and you believe you may be the victim of retaliation for joining this lawsuit, contact us immediately.

Will I have to testify or provide documentary proof?

If you have records relating to your work with Adient, please keep them until we ask you for them.  However, you do not need to have records of your work hours to be included. If Adient did not keep accurate time records, most courts will permit you to make a “good faith” estimate of your work hours.  We will seek any records the company has of your hours worked. Please ensure you do not destroy any documents or data you have that relate in any way to your work for Adient.

Do I have to pay anything?

No, you will not have to pay us anything out of your own pocket.  We are handling this case on a contingency basis. This means we will only be paid if the lawsuit is successful in obtaining relief either through a settlement or an award, and that payment will only come out of that settlement or award.

How long will the case take?

The length of this kind of lawsuit varies from case to case, but they typically last one to three years.
