Independent Contractor Misclassification Lawyer in Las Vegas
Calling someone a “contractor” does not make it so. If the company controls your schedule, tools, and methods, you may be an employee owed wages, overtime, and benefits protections.
Jonathan D. Roven represents Nevada employees — not employers — in independent contractor misclassification disputes across Las Vegas and Clark County.
Warning Signs
- 1099 pay with set shifts and supervision

Nevada and Federal Protections
Nevada statutes address willful misclassification and create an independent-contractor presumption only when specific criteria are met. Misclassification can support wage claims.
What To Do Next
- Keep evidence of control (schedules, write-ups, scripts)
- Save payment records
- Do not assume a signed contractor agreement ends the analysis
- Read our misclassification guide

Do I need a independent contractor misclassification lawyer in Las Vegas?
If your job, pay, or working conditions changed after protected activity or because of a protected characteristic, speaking with an employment lawyer early can protect deadlines and evidence.
