You just placed an ideal candidate with your client. She is scheduled
to start next Monday, but your client is balking at paying your fee.
How should you proceed? As an MRINetwork franchisee, you will
have on-demand access to advice that can protect you from costly
and time-consuming legal problems.
Our legal experts have more than 40 years of combined experience handling
issues specific to the recruiting industry and the modern workforce. Legal
consultation will be just a phone call or email away, and a wealth of useful
material will be instantly available in the legal section of The Resource.
In the case of your client trying to obtain your services for free, you’d
know the first thing you should do is invoice the client, despite their
protest. You will also be able to count on our legal expertise for many
other potentially troublesome issues, including:
• Client and candidate problems
• Fee agreement and other
contract reviews and revisions
• EEO issues and requirements
Although MRINetwork cannot actually represent our offices in court or an arbitration
proceeding, you will benefit from legal guidance that would come at a high cost
on your own. The best part is that you have the option to often manage
or avoid sticky situations before they become true legal problems.
• Employee matters, such as discipline,
discrimination, or termination
• Immigration
