Commercial litigators handling business-to-business wage disputes or contractor misclassification cases may need to file FLSA collective actions for groups of similarly situated workers.
Commercial litigation often involves employment-related disputes where multiple plaintiffs claim similar wage violations, requiring conditional certification under FLSA standards.
