trucking company refuses to pay me...

by lydia carlson

For some reason my company refuses to pay me. They say we have to compromise on the amount of miles i obtained for the week. I keep a very tight log book and the odometer on the truck doesnt lie for some reason they claim i made up miles and want to cut my check. Telling me to take it or leave it.

What are some possible actions i can take. Its been days since theyve had to pay me and i need my check but they refuse to pay unless ive agreed to their set payment. They want to cut my check by $300-$400 dollars.

Please help.

Do you have a contract? ANYTHING in writing about how and how much they'll pay you? I'd start thinking about legal action but be careful - have all the facts and "ducks in a row". If the company is big, they'll wear you down with "lawyering". You can generally find a 30 - 60 minute consultation with an attorney for little or no money. BUT BE SURE TO HAVE ALL THE FACTS AND PAPERWORK. "He said, she said" stuff gets thrown out of court all the time...
