Knoxville shareholder Marshall Stair presented his annual Fair Labor Standards Act update on April 30th to the Knoxville Bar Association. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) establishes minimum wage, overtime pay, recordkeeping, and youth employment standards affecting employees in the private sector and in Federal, State, and local governments. Marshall concentrates his practice in employment law with an emphasis on the Fair Labor Standards Act and speaks frequently to employers. While attending law school, he worked for the United States Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, assisting federal investigations enforcing the Fair Labor Standards Act. After earning his degree from the University of Tennessee in 2008, Marshall used his knowledge and experience with the FLSA to assist and defend employers of all sizes facing claims of minimum wage and overtime violations in Federal Courts and Department of Labor investigations.
