‼️ Ever stayed late, answered emails after hours, or prepped before your shift—without getting paid? 🤔

Don’t let your time go unnoticed—every minute matters.

Josephson Dunlap is here to help you understand your rights and guide you on what steps you can take if you’re missing wages.⚖️ 💪

Shout-out to Our Summer Interns!
This summer, our high school interns have gone above and beyond, and JD couldn’t be prouder of their work!
They’ve contributed across multiple departments and tackled real-world projects, including digging into FLSA wage violation issues. We set out to give them a hands-on, engaging experience, and they rose to the challenge every step of the way.
It’s been a summer full of learning, collaboration, and real impact. We’re so grateful to have had such a smart, driven group of future professionals in our office!

Many reserve or National Guard members activated for duty come home to find lost jobs or missed pay.
That’s wrong. That’s where USERRA and Josephson Dunlap step in.

Reservists are sometimes denied their civilian job or not fully paid what they’re owed. The Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA) protects workers who serve in the military:
✔️ Your job must be protected
✔️ You return to the same (or similar) position
✔️ You keep your benefits and seniority
✔️ You may be entitled to “top-up” pay if your active duty wages were lower than your regular salary

Your service matters. So do your rights.

Josephson Dunlap stands with our military community to help protect your pay and recover what you could be owed.

👷🚫 If you’re paying out of pocket for meals, hotels, or travel, your Per Diem might not be keeping up. In the oil & gas industry, companies sometimes pay workers who are doing the same job different Per Diems!‼️
If you think you are receiving less than what you should, or your overtime doesn’t include Per Diem pay, you could be missing out on money you’ve already earned. ‼️

⚖️ Josephson Dunlap supports oil & gas workers—helping you understand your pay and standing up for fairness in the workplace.💪💸
