Mr. Wigdor represented Nick Oram, a former SoulCycle instructor, in a class action lawsuit alleging that SoulCycle instructors were not paid consistent with New York and California laws. As alleged, SoulCycle only compensated these instructors for the time spent teaching their classes, and failed to compensate them for time spent in training, preparing for classes, developing routines, compiling playlists, communicating with customers, attending meetings, leading special event classes and engaging in marketing. Mr. Wigdor said of the lawsuit: “This is yet another example of a company so-focused on profits that it disregards the wage and hour laws that are designed to protect hard working and dedicated employees such as Mr. Oram and his colleagues.
