Hello: I am Director of Oregon Center for Employee Rights. I have represented Oregon employees, in wage claims and litigation since
1994. I am a wage expert, who will fight for your right to be paid for your work, and for penalties for wage nonpayment or late payment.
I don't charge my clients anything for my services. I get paid by billing your former employer for my fees.
Please give me a call or email me, and I would be happy to provide you with a free claims consultation.
Thank you,
Brian A. Buchanan
