What is the name of your state? NY
As an incentive to take a job offer, the recruiter firm agreed in writing to pay me $3500 after I started my job. Months passed and I was unable to collect since the VP that made the arrangement had already left the firm (which I doubt since his info is still on the company's updated website)... I took them to small claim court and I won. Only after my current employer threathens to terminate their relationship with that firm, the owner of the company reluctantly paid 1/2 out of his personal account in July with a note stating that the remaining will be paid no later than Sep 1.
When I e-mailed to follow up today, I was told "don't waste your time, we are closing the business" (which I still doubt as he's been mentioning that for a while now).. I have been more than accomodating and would like to know if I can 1) still go thru the enforcement officer and take the $$ out from his PERSONAL account. 2) File a criminal suit against the firm as well as the owner of the firm for fraud? or 3) If I have any other options.
Any feedback would be appreciated......
