Were you a Sales Representative at an AG-Pro location and denied overtime pay?
You may be entitled to compensation for unpaid wages, liquidated damages, and legal fees.
About the Case
Tittle & Perlmuter has filed a federal class action lawsuit against AG-Pro Ohio, LLC, a Georgia-based company that owns and operates retail locations nationwide. The lawsuit alleges that AG-Pro misclassified its sales representatives as exempt from overtime pay—illegally denying them the extra wages they were rightfully owed under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA).
Who’s Included?
This lawsuit covers current and former Sales Representatives at any AG-Pro location nationwide who were:
- Paid a salary or guaranteed base pay plus commissions
- Classified as exempt from overtime pay
- Worked more than 40 hours per week
If you were paid more in base salary than commissions during any workweek and didn’t receive time-and-a-half for overtime hours, you may be eligible to join this case.
What’s the Legal Issue?
Under Section 7(i) of the FLSA, an employee in retail or service must meet both of the following conditions to be exempt from overtime:
- Their regular rate of pay exceeds 1.5x the federal minimum wage
- More than half of their earnings in that week come from commissions
The lawsuit alleges that:
- AG-Pro’s Sales Representatives often worked over 40 hours a week
- Their base pay regularly exceeded commissions, making them non-exempt
- Despite this, AG-Pro uniformly denied overtime compensation
- The company willfully ignored federal overtime laws, violating the FLSA
Legal Claims
The lawsuit includes two primary legal claims:
1. Violation of the FLSA Overtime Provisions
AG-Pro failed to pay overtime wages when required, even though Sales Representatives did not qualify for the retail sales exemption in many weeks.
2. Unjust Enrichment
AG-Pro benefited from unpaid labor by knowingly retaining employees’ overtime work without compensation.
What You Could Receive
If you qualify and choose to opt in, you may be eligible for:
- Back pay for unpaid overtime wages
- An equal amount in liquidated damages
- Coverage of legal fees and costs
