NELA

Wage and hour law is constantly changing­—new circuit splits on misclassification, shifting FLSA exemption standards, expanding state pay transparency rules, and novel claims arising from remote work and AI-driven scheduling and timekeeping. NELA’s 2027 Spring Seminar offers plaintiffs’ employment lawyers strategies and practical tools to stay ahead. Learn straight from practitioners who try these cases and expand your network along the way.

Who Should Attend?

Plaintiffs’ employment lawyers at any experience level who litigate or want to litigate wage and hour claims, including collective and class actions, misclassification cases, and more.

Look for program details in late 2026.
