Meal and Rest Break Attorney Representation in Southern California
We understand how important break and meal periods are during your workday. If your employer has not allowed you to take regular breaks or lunch periods, or if your
employer has required you to work during your break or meal period, you may have grounds for legal action. California Labor Law sets forth the number of meal breaks
and rest breaks that employers must allow their employees to take. Employers found in violation are required to pay penalties. Southern California Meal and Rest Break
Attorney Damien Miranda can help determine if your employer has violated the law.

The following break and meal periods must be provided to non-exempt, non-salaried

breaks must be given.

A 10-minute rest period must be given for each four-hour shift.

A 30-minute meal break and two ten-minute rest breaks are required for those working an
