Ohio’s minimum wage rises to $11.40 an hour for covered non-tipped workers on January 1, 2027, while the tipped cash wage increases to $5.70. Workers should check their first January paychecks carefully because an employer that misses the increase may also underpay overtime. If your pay does not reflect the new rate, contact Gibson Law, LLC. We can review your hours, pay records, and overtime calculations to determine what you may be owed.

Reporting sexual harassment should trigger a meaningful response from your employer, not silence. When HR or management ignores a complaint, fails to investigate, or allows the conduct to continue, that response can become important evidence in an Ohio harassment claim. If your employer failed to take your complaint seriously, contact Gibson Law, LLC. We can review what you reported, how the company responded, and what options may be available. https://bit.ly/4717ACg

Serving on a jury shouldn’t cost you your job. Ohio law protects qualifying employees from being fired, threatened with termination, or disciplined in ways that could lead to termination because they answered a jury summons. If your employer punished you for serving on a jury, contact Gibson Law, LLC. We can review what happened and determine whether your employment rights were violated. https://bit.ly/4hTUnSK

Anxiety, depression, panic disorder, and PTSD can all qualify for FMLA protection under federal law, but most Ohio workers don't realize that until after they've already been disciplined for absences that should have been protected. Mental health conditions aren't treated differently under the law just because they aren't visible, and an employer who denies a legitimate leave request or counts protected absences against you may be violating your rights. If that happened to you in Cincinnati, Dayton, or anywhere in Ohio, contact Gibson Law for a free case evaluation. https://bit.ly/3RjONhB

A Performance Improvement Plan is framed as a chance to course-correct, but Ohio employment attorneys know what PIPs often really are: the paper trail a company builds before it fires someone. If yours arrived right after you filed a complaint, requested medical leave, or pushed back on something at work, that timing matters. Gibson Law, LLC offers free case evaluations for workers in Cincinnati, Dayton, and across Ohio. Attorneys Brad and Angela Gibson spent years on the employer side of these disputes, now they fight for employees. Contact us today to learn how we can help you. https://bit.ly/4oFRQg8

Not every resignation is truly voluntary. When workplace conditions become severe enough, the law may treat it as a termination. If you were pushed out of your job, we can help you understand your options. https://bit.ly/4ulYcTs
