Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

Re: Staffing Contracts

It would probably depend upon whether the company was aware of the Staffing Firm and, if so, what communications took place between them as to the candidate. It might also depend upon wheteher there was any past history with the Staffing Firm. Not all contracts have to be in writing in order to be enforcible. Of course, the Staffing Firm may also be able to sue the candidate. Did the company make any representations to the candidate that they would pay the Staffing Firm? There is a rule of law that if two people make an agreement that benefits a third party, that the third party, whom is an intended beneficiary, may sue to enforce that agreement.

Re: Staffing Contracts

If when you contacted the firm you knew the terms under which they would be sending someone over, then you probably have a contract and probably owe them the fee.

Re: Staffing Contracts

You very likely have a verbal contract, which means they can probably get some of their fee...depending on how much it is. Talk to an attorney to find out for certain.
