“We think this is a very favorable resolution of misclassification and deduction claims under the Massachusetts Wage Act, which provides significant relief to the 47 class members involved,” Olena Savytska of Lichten & Liss-Riordan said of the $795,000 settlement on behalf of delivery drivers misclassified as independent contractors.
Litigators who took on “gig economy” companies and other employers for misclassifying Massachusetts delivery drivers as independent contractors successfully earned final approval of a nearly $800,000 settlement.
