Legal Question in Employment Law in South Carolina

employer owes me a weeks pay from October 2011. Numerous phone contacts made with no results. In South Carolina I can get 3 times my pay under certain circumstances. Is it better to file with the SC Dept of Labor and get a ruling or go straight to magistrates court and file. If I file in magistrates court do I have to send employer a certified letter demanding wages first?
