Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in New York
A friend has been working for this guy, the sole owner of his company, for almost a year now on an event by event basis. The guy has never been prompt at paying but this time my friend is owed about $4000. Now the guy has committed suicide leaving behind substantial debts. Is there any way my friend can still get his money?

See if Small Claims Court will let someone with rights to his estate can sue. Even if he does not have a will (died intestate) there are rules about which relatives come in what order.
