SERVING THE GREATER PHILADELPHIA AREA AND BEYOND

This lawsuit seeks to recover unpaid wages for restaurant servers who worked for at the Quaker Steak and Lube restaurants in York and Mechanicsburg, PA. The restaurants paid the servers a combination of (i) an hourly wage of $2.83 and (ii) customer tips. Federal and Pennsylvania wage laws require that most workers receive a minimum wage of $7.25/hour. However, in paying servers, bartenders, busboys, and other "tipped employees," restaurants are allowed to take credit for some of the tips that restaurant customers pay to the servers and other tipped employees. This "tip credit" provides a big benefit to restaurants.

This lawsuit is concluded. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or desire any additional information. We would be happy to answer your questions and, if permitted, provide you with additional information.
