How to file this claim
- Confirm you are an hourly, non-exempt employee or former employee of Watermark Services IV LLC who worked in California during the Class Period (June 1, 2022 to March 31, 2025).
- Check the notice mailed to you for the number of workweeks and PAGA pay periods credited to you — this determines your payment amount.
- If your mailing address has changed, notify the settlement administrator immediately so your check reaches you.
- If you believe the workweek or PAGA pay period count on your notice is wrong, prepare a signed letter describing your dispute and mail it with supporting documentation (such as pay stubs) to the settlement administrator before the dispute deadline.
- If you want to opt out of the Class Settlement portion entirely, send a written, signed opt-out request to the settlement administrator before the opt-out deadline — note you cannot opt out of the PAGA portion.
- If you take no action and do not opt out, you will automatically receive a check in the mail approximately 44 days after the court grants final approval.
Documents you'll need
Watch out for
- You cannot opt out of the PAGA portion of the settlement — only the class settlement portion allows opt-outs.
- Missing the dispute deadline means you lose the right to challenge the workweek or pay period count that determines your payment amount.
- If your address on file with the settlement administrator is outdated, your check may not reach you — update it proactively.
- Part of your payment (20%) is treated as wages and will be subject to tax withholding reported on a W-2; the remaining 80% is treated as penalties and reported on a 1099.
- Individual PAGA payments are reported entirely as penalties on IRS 1099.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
