Re: non signed contract

In Florida, there is no statute or controlling law that expressly provides for employees in the private sector to be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses. IF the claim is under $5K, you might consider filing a small claims case which can be initiated by filing a 1-page "Statement of Claim" that is a form you simply fill out, plus payment of the filing fee. Visit your local County Courthouse for additional information.
