CASE NO: 3:19-CV-00119

CASE STATUS: Settled

SETTLEMENT AMOUNT: $4,690,000

COURT: UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF TENNESSEE

Siegel Law Group served as co-lead counsel and obtained an approximately ~$4.69 million settlement in this wage and hour lawsuit against NaviHealth, Inc. on behalf of Rule 23 Class Members and FLSA Opt-In Plaintiffs during the time period at issue. Led by Jack Siegel of Siegel Law Group, the plaintiffs brought this unpaid overtime case alleging violations of the federal Fair Labor Standards Act, 29 U.S.C. § 201, et seq. (“FLSA”). The case was litigated in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Tennessee and was captioned Barbee et al. v. NaviHealth, Inc., No. 3:19-cv-00119.

 

The plaintiffs were employees whose job duties consisted primarily of care management work. Plaintiffs routinely worked well over forty (40) hours per workweek, but were not paid any overtime compensation for hours worked in excess of forty hours per week. Instead, Plaintiffs received a flat salary for their work. Plaintiffs primarily claimed that they were improperly classified as exempt employees by NaviHealth, Inc. and were not paid overtime when they worked more than forty (40) hours per week. The settlement resolved the claims alleged in the action.
