Re: Dying before getting paid for services rendered
The Personal Representative of your father's estate will have what ever rights your father had to pursue this claim. I would need to know more about the "agreement" between your father and the non-profit before I would have an opinion on what your father's rights were.
Re: Dying before getting paid for services rendered
Unless your father completely waived his right to these earned but unpaid wages, his estate is entitled to those wages.
Please feel free to contact me at (305) 810-2887 to further discuss this matter.
Re: Dying before getting paid for services rendered
It would be a claim of your father's estate, which the estate would have to pursue. In terms of the claim itself, I would need more information to advise you on the validity of the claim.
Best of luck.
