Where to turn when a cont. doesn't pay???


By: Karl Frankenfield ( (-REDACTED-) )

Heres the deal,

Did work for a general contractor (to remain nameless at this time) in Richmond, VA
Have been told that the work has been cleared by the cable company.
The project mang. in Richmond says the work is accepted and QC completed
The head office in Florida is holding 7000+ dollars in retainage.
From the head office I have been told the following:
First that the check was going to be a week late, I should get it on Fri. (this was 2 wks ago)
Now they are saying that they are in some kind of merger and I have to
wait two weeks to get paid
I still work for this company in a round about way, in another state, through a sub.
but have other work lined up able to start when ready in same area.
Would contacting the Cable company do any good.
Are there any orgainiations ex. FCC, State gov.) that I should notify
Can I file with the credit companies

If anyone out there has any suggestions e-mail me at:

SANE AND LEGAL OPTIONS ONLY
