Question: How can I legally ensure payment from an installer who has not paid me for completed solar installations as per our contract?

Answer: In a case where an employee is having difficulty getting paid by an installer after solar panel installations, and the contract specifies payment should be made a week after installation but it has been months, there is a potential breach of contract. The employee should gather all relevant documentation, including the contract and evidence of completed jobs and communications with the installer. An employee may consider sending a formalized demand for payment prior to proceeding to Court. If you'd like to speak with an attorney about your situation, or for help with a demand letter, contact Cape Law to see if services are offered in your jurisdiction.
