Hello Everybody. I have a question regarding a business owner / sub contractor pay issue. Here is the situation. I am 1099'ed sub contractor still working for the man whom trained me 15 years ago. He pays me once a month at a percentage of the business I do for his company. 15 years and never a problem. Here is what is going on now. 3 appraisals I did for a company way back in April and May were paid to me by him back in May and June. This week I have been informed by the man I work for that he got a letter from this company and they are filing bankruptcy. Instead of paying the full fee for the 3 appraisals they are only paying him 25% of what is owed. He is talking that he wants me to pay him back the money that he paid me 3 and 4 months ago. My question now is this. Whether you are the business owner and you have sub contractors working for you or if you have a situation similar to mine and you work for somebody,,,,,,how does this situation get handled when and if it happens in your office? Would like to say Thanks in advance for any input anybody here can give me. If you would rather not post here and you would rather email me privately you can at: eagle_flies_high@yahoo.com Thanks again for any input! Joey
