Construction Industry/Receiving paycheck

Question
What recourse in Florida do I have if I do not receive my final paycheck or my overtime work from my employer.  My employer has a contract with a GC, so I know he has more than likely been paid.

Answer
Hi Michael;I have no idea why your question was forwarded to me.  I deal in answering problems with all types of floor covering, and I am not an attorney.  I really don't know of any expert who could answer your question.  You may want to get some free legal advice from the Public Defender's office in a main city in Florida, or go to the city hall in the town in which you live and see if someone there could help you.  Other than that, legal action could be taken by you with the Courts in your area, or you could present your problem to an attorney who would probably charge you but may be able to demand legal expenses in the complaint.

Cordially,

John Michaels

Expertise

We are a floor covering inspection service and a floor covering specifying service. We inspect all types of floor coverings in every city and town in all 50 States and Canada, for manufacturing, installation, or maintenance related problems. We also specify, so when someone is about to choose a floor covering for a residential or commercial installation, after we find out, from them, the particulars about the installation, we can suggest the proper product, installation method, and maintenance method to provide optimum life of the product. (Note that in your B2B Category, we did not find any heading related to our business, so we just chose the Construction category). So if someone has a problem with the performance, installation, or maintenance of any floor covering, we can give suggestions, without a formal inspection, the possible causes of the prolems.

Experience

We have been in manufacturing, installation, and maintenance, of all types of residential and commercial floor coverings, for many years, and for the past 13 years, we just inspect and specify.
