Re: forged check

First, you need to contact the police and the district attorney's office and file a complaint. See if you can get copies of the check both front and back for the signature. Then you want to contact the New York State department of labor and see if they can help usually free of charge. after that you need to seek personal legal counsel and start an action against your former employer. there maybe many avenues of action you can take and that will take more time than I can fill in this answer.

If you wish to discuss this further you can contact me directly at 51.746.4747 or at [email protected].
