Founding Director Matthew Sirolly attended the Gould School of Law at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.The Wage Justice Center works to provide a systematic solution to protect the basic economic rights of workers and enforce the collection of the approximately $50 million in unpaid wages by these employers. The Center's unique approach of enforcing judgments and creating a permanent enforcement mechanism for wage rights contributes to the growing national movement of organizations that combat the systemic inequality facing America s poorest workers. Using elements of commercial law debtor creditor law corporation s law trusts/estates law and bankruptcy law the Wage Justice Center in its first three years collected more than $800000 in funds owed to low income workers and provided assistance to hundreds of workers.
