Question

I work at a boarding kennel, and customers will leave tips for the staff, but the owner keeps all the tips. In Nevada what is the law regarding this?

Answer

This is a violation of Nevada Law. Claims for this violation must be pursued with the Nevada Labor Commissioner but it may be in your interest to have an attorney represent you on such a claim. Feel free to contact my office for a no cost, no obligation, confidential, consulation by telephone about your situation. 702-383-6085. Or visit my website overtimelaw.com.

Answer

You can visit the Labor Commissioner at 555 E. Washington Ave., Ste. 4100. They can pursue your rights for you, and you cannot be retaliated against for speaking with them. I recommend filing a claim in person.
