Thread: Back Pay

I worked for a very small company and they changed the pay roll from biweekly to monthly on payroll day. I went 6 weeks with out being paid. When pay day came around the company lost its credit line and wasn't able to pay me the 6 weeks worth of pay. I was laid off the following Monday via a text msg of all things. I was never sent a separation letter. It took them over a week to do my unemployment paperwork. I tried to get in touch with them regarding getting the things off my desk. It took them 2 months to mail part of my things. I had a mont blanc pen on desk that they "cant find" so they didn't send that. They claimed they mailed the portfolio that was on desk 2 different times. It showed up 11/20 with a post mark date of 11/19. I would like my pen and my back pay. They wont even return my calls and they moved to a new office. I am 99% sure they haven't field for bankruptcy. What is the best legal action with the lowest cost.

Thanks
