Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida
7 weeks late paycheck
I work part-time as a
contractor/consultant for a small
marketing firm in Maitland, FL. I
submit my invoices on a weekly
basis, as requested by my client and
the invoices state ''payment due on
reciept.'' They have gone for 7 weeks
without paying me. Since they
accepted my invoices as is without
making changes, are they in some
sort of breach by not paying me?
They are also standing in the way of
my finding other employment by not
letting me know, sometimes until the
morning of that day, if they will need
me to work that day. I am unable to
make arrangements to work
elsewhere, and I also need to
schedule daycare for our two year old
son. Do I have any legal recourse?
