One of the companies, being very small with 30 employees, has not paid the consulting fees for the candidate who joined through our consulting firm. They requested legal documents, which we provided. The company does not answer our calls, and neither does the candidate. They have not replied to any of our emails. We considered involving the police and visiting the company directly, but we prefer to resolve the matter calmly.
The company refused to sign the agreement copy, stating that our consulting firm was not registered. We have recently completed the registration process and sent them the Certificate of Incorporation as proof of our registration. However, the company still does not respond to our calls, nor does the candidate. Please suggest what we can do to receive payment from this company.

Send them a notice via email as a formality. You have the communication via email to prove the candidate is yours. Send them that. Then you need to set aside $1000 for legal charges as you would need to send them a Notice Through Lawyer. Remember, you can recover the payment within 3 years. Don't be rude if the candidate is on a warranty period; otherwise, the company can terminate the candidate and refuse to pay. You can charge compensation to the company for mental harassment, loss of goodwill, and legal expenses. Try this once. It will work out. Send the email to the HR department, Accounting Department, Management, along with the Founder of the company.

Kindly don't... The idea of this community is not to call out companies but to figure out if anything can be done when situations like these arise.
Raising the company name simply attracts libel issues and does not add any value to the knowledge base for the community.

Company is not paying consultation fees:
I worked with a company as a management/administrative consultant for 7 years. The issue of a formal agreement was delayed by the company continuously on the grounds of trust, and promises were made that arrears would be paid to me retroactively once the final amount is decided. I was paid a fixed monthly amount similar to a salary. I have proof of all payments and witnesses of colleagues/outside professionals with whom I dealt, as conclusive evidence of my work for the company. After 7 years, I decided to discontinue and claimed the final accumulated dues. The company did not reply to any email communications, nor did they answer my phone calls. What legal remedies do I have in this case? It involves both payment default and fraud.
