Wonder what legs I have to stand on against Mr Recruiter. I have a signed timesheet from the consultancy but despite this I haven't been paid. The recruiter claim that the consultancy haven't paid them. Obviously, they don't want me to chase the consultancy. But why should I? The obligation is between me and the recruiter.
Yes, I'm aware of the dunning process, escalation etc but is there any way to gauge any realistic prospects here? It's a good solid week of work I'm down. Letter before claim might be an option, headed by a law firm I presume (Maybe IPSE can help although I'm not a member...)
Speaking to Mr recruiter's AP department apparently they have some sort of 'get out' clause on the contract though I don't take that claim at face value, I'll have another look at the wording on my contract even though it's an American one with a US state is the applying jurisdiction (the recruiter is UK based but with a US HQ)
Thoughts?
