Frequently Asked Questions

Can I still get paid if my employer filed for bankruptcy?

Unpaid wages may have priority in a bankruptcy, up to certain limits. What you can recover depends on the filing and your state.

Do I need to file something with the bankruptcy court?

Employees owed pay often must submit a claim by a deadline set in the case.

What if the company closed and the owners are still operating?

In some situations owners or related companies can also be responsible for unpaid wages.

What records help my claim?

Pay stubs, schedules, bank deposits, the bankruptcy notice and messages about missed paydays help show what is owed.

How long do I have to make a claim?

Bankruptcy claim deadlines can be short, and wage claim deadlines depend on your state.

Does YesLawyer help with unpaid wages after a bankruptcy in every state?

YesLawyer connects people with lawyers across the country, though state and case eligibility apply. Whether your claim can be taken depends on your state and the facts of your case.
