Jacksonville, NC asked in Employment Law for North Carolina

Q: Withholding Pay

I worked for a cupcake franchise for 2 months and quit because the weren’t pay any employees correctly or providing pay stubs. Our time logs were all posted on an app so i have accurate records of what my paychecks were supposed to be as well and an excel spreadsheet of the checks they wrote from their personal accounts. I contacted the NCDOL but they dropped my case after the employers were avoiding contact and providing false or incomplete information. How should I go about getting the rest of my pay?

A: If the NCDOL would not help, you only other option would be to file a lawsuit against them. You should consult with an attorney to discuss how best to approach a lawsuit.
