Never paid for work

[babillsfan]

I worked for a company for 6 weeks. My first paycheck from the company bounced and the 2nd one I was given to replace the 1st also bounced. I was owed 2 more checks and the employer refuses to return my calls. I have pursued the bounced check problem through the DA's office but have been unsuccessful contacting the labor department for the two checks I never received. Any advice?

I like these

I like these cause I have had first had experience with just this type of thing. You have a claim for "goods and services sold." What I did was wright a nice letter, including all the proof that I did work for them, stating they had five (5) working days to comply and pay me, or I would see them in court. Depending upon the amount, it will probably be in small claims (which is easy to do). The hard part is getting the money, if it goes that far. Be prepared to NOT get paid for awhile, cause that's just the way it happens sometimes, but if you do get paid fast...outstanding. GOOD LUCK!!
