Legal Question in Employment Law in Texas

Day Labor

My brother worked day labor for a solid week for a company named Bluebonnet Painting Inc. in Round Rock Texas. It is going on four weeks and he is still not able to collect payment? He can't afford a lawyer its just a couple hundred dollars? Should he just take a loss or is there a way to turn these people in. You cant work a 19 year old kid for seven solid days and not pay him its just not right.

Call the Texas Workforce Commission in your area..they have the authority to make an employer pay...but a quicker course would be to go to the local JP..or small claims Court..and you should have a judgment in a month
