People who are paid an hourly wage generally do not get paid for their lunch time. But this is not considered a deduction. Your paycheck statement should show the hours you work during each pay period. Your statement should indicate that you actually worked and are being paid for 71 hours (or 35.5 hours per week.) If you have not been taking the designated time for lunch and have instead worked through that time, you were doing it gratis. There is no benefit to you in working more hours than the company intends to pay you. When you are hired for a 40 hour work week with an hour each day for lunch it means you are working 35 and eating 5 of those hours. The reason they may be stating it that way is so you understand that the lunch time is specific during each day and that from the time you arrive at work in the morning until the time you quit for the day, a total of 8 hours has been spent "at the job".

Accident attorneys should only get paid if you win your case.?

This type of fee arrangement is known as a contingency fee, where the attorney's payment is contingent on winning the case or obtaining a settlement. It allows clients to pursue legal action without upfront costs, as the attorney only receives payment if the case is successful. However, the percentage of the recovery that the attorney receives as a fee can vary and should be agreed upon in advance.
