No. The initial review is free, and there is no upfront service fee. Answer a few questions about your final paycheck to find out whether we can help.
Our fee is 35% of the money recovered. You receive 65%. For example, if we recover $2,000, our fee is $700 and you receive $1,300.
Nothing. You only pay if we recover money for you.
Start with a few questions about your last job and when your final paycheck arrived. No documents are needed for that first step. If we can help, we’ll ask for the records needed to review and pursue your claim, and explain what happens next.
Yes, if your claim is accepted and you authorize us to proceed. We handle employer communications and negotiation within the agreed service. Simply checking whether you qualify does not contact your employer.
That is what CheckLate focuses on: final paychecks that arrived late. Getting paid does not necessarily cancel a waiting-time penalty that has already built up. We review the dates and circumstances to see whether we can help.
