Law money 01

CHICAGO — Two individuals are suing Marathon Systems Inc. and Richard L. Mock, the owner of the cleaning service, citing alleged unpaid wages, violation of applicable minimum wage law and violation of Workers' Compensation acts for inadequate overtime and other claims.

Margoth Lara Soriano and Cresensio Rodriguez Valle filed a complaint on March 9 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against the defendants alleging they failed to properly compensate the plaintiffs for their work.

According to the complaint, the plaintiffs allege weren't being paid minimum wage, as they were directed to work more than 40 hours per week but did not receive overtime. The plaintiffs hold the defendants responsible because they allegedly failed to pay fair wages to the plaintiffs equal to the total hours they worked.

The plaintiffs seek all unpaid wages, statutory damages, court costs and any further relief this court grants. They are represented by Bryan Pacheco of Consumer Law Group LLC in Chicago.
