Salary or full & final not paid by your employer?
Unpaid salary and pending full-and-final settlements are among the most common workplace disputes. Depending on your role and salary, you can approach the labour authorities under wage laws, or a civil court. A legal notice is often enough to get the employer to pay.

FAQ
Salary or full & final not paid by your employer?: common questions
Can I go to the labour authorities as a manager?+
Labour law remedies mainly cover 'workers' / 'workmen'. Managerial employees usually recover dues through civil or commercial claims — a lawyer will advise which applies.
How long do I have to claim?+
Generally three years for a recovery suit, but some labour claims have shorter limits. Act early.
Is it free to submit my problem on LawPaw?+
Yes. Telling us your problem and getting a call back from your coordinator is free. You pay only if you decide to go ahead.
What will I have to pay?+
Up to three things, all told to you in writing before you pay: (1) LawPaw's convenience fee for coordinating your matter, (2) the professional's fee, which they quote, and (3) government charges such as court fees or stamp duty, at actual cost. GST applies as per law. There are no hidden charges.
