Company I work for isn't paying me

I work for this new long distance company called Lagunawave and 2 weeks ago they said they were having problems with our lawyers and that they needed to get everything settled and that day was our payday and they never paid us then another pay period rolled around and they still haven't paid us. What can i do? I live in Tucson, AZ.

Re: Company I work for isn't paying me

This is really a Labor Law question, one of Employer/Employee rights. You might want to re-submit under that category.

Arizona has a statute for a claim for unpaid wages, which allows you to sue for damages (it might be treble, I do not recall) plus atttorneys fees and costs.

I doubt it was the lawyers who prevented paychecks from being issued. The lawyers probably had a conflict of interest, they were asked to do work, but the business had no money!

You might want to seek employment with a more deserving employer.

Good luck and best regards.
