The Project
Helena addressed the unmet legal needs of low-income and immigrant working people in Texas who often don’t get paid for their work. Additionally, Helena actively litigate under the Fair Labor Standards Act’s minimum wage and overtime provisions and apply collections remedies that increase the ability of unpaid low-income men and women to fully recover the unpaid wages owed to them.
