[quote=Anonymous]I was referred to a family by a neighbor of mine.
The family needed a Nanny for only five days (one workweek) & I decided to help them out.

Since it was only a five-day gig, I wasn’t put on any payroll. I would be paid via personal check at the end of my five days.
This was their idea - they told me it would be easier for everyone if we went this route and I agreed.
After working my five days > I was given a personal check for $650.

The problem?
They wrote the wrong year on the check.
Instead of 2022, they wrote 2021 and since checks have a six month span, my bank (BofA) refused to cash it.
I then contacted the family via text re: the issue + the Mother assured me she would pay me the amount in cash.

That was ten days ago.
She has not answered my texts or returned my telephone calls.
I want to take her to Small Claims court, but since the money was technically paid “off-the-books” I have been told going to court would likely cause more headaches.

How can I get what they owe me??
Thx.[/quote]
