Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

Re: wages check cancelled

This is entirely illegal. In a case like this you may be entitled to recover the amount of your paycheck plus an equal amount as "liquidated damages." I handle cases like these on a regular basis. I handle them on a contingency basis which means you pay no attorney's fee unless I am successful. Feel free to email me privately to set up a time for a free consultation on the phone or in my office.

Re: wages check cancelled

If you have not been paid your final paycheck, your employer has likely violated the Fair Labor Standards Act, which requires that you receive at least the minimum wage for all hours worked, plus time and a half for all hours worked over 40, so you should consult with an attorney to learn what specific rights you may have.

Re: wages check cancelled

Direct deposit may be cancelled by an employer. However, any wages for hours worked are still required to be paid.
