I was wondering if the lawsuit against this jerk ever produced any results? I worked for them in 2005 and quit 4 months after I started because I'd been working 60 days straight without being paid. I told him I wouldn't type another line until I was paid and received several verbally abusive messages, full of expletives, but never received my wages. They still owe me almost $2000.

You should have taken them to small claims court yourself - sm

Someone else's suit is not going to help you. You have to do it yourself. You CAN do it yourself.

No one should work 60 days without being paid. Stop working for them immediately upon not being paid.

Companies like that thrive on intimidation and abuse, knowing the MT is more likely to grovel than to press forward with a demand for payment.

I looked into it - nm

but I would have had to go to Pennsylvania to go to court and he knew it, he even said something about it in one of his nasty e-mails. At the time, I was a single mom and struggling really hard just to keep a roof over our heads. I couldn't afford a lawyer and the Department of Labor said they couldn't do anything because I lived in Colorado and they were based in Pennsylvania. They told me I would have to go there to do anything. I know I'll never get my money, but I was just hoping someone put that $^#&%&@ out of business!!!

Contact the Small Claims Court in PA - you may be able to do it - all by mail - I did -sm

When I sued a company who owed me back pay. They were in Michigan and I could do everything by mail - no court appearance by myself either because they said it was a hardship for me to go there. The company would have to show. Proof of Service is done by mail, as are liens. May be worth a try :)

Who oh - who

in CO in the DOL did you contact? What specific person? Were you an IC or an employee of the company? there may be additional resources depending on those answers

It was so long ago - abbagirl

that I honestly don't remember who I spoke to. I was an IC, they did not have "employees." I wasn't aware that it could be done by mail, and I will definitely check into that. However, I fear with the costs of filing and the fact that there was a class-action suit against him a few years back it would be impossible to collect even if I did win. I just hope karma takes care of Mr Arthur Toth!!

I worked for this couple for over a month. He has decided not to pay using the excuse that he pays after 2 months, but that is after all his fees. This guy is a total joke. After he said he would not pay me for all the work I have done, I stopped producing. He says I owe him for 2 weeks worth of work. He is now threatening me that he will come across state lines and make me pay him for work lost and legal fees. Is he really that ignorant? He is actually funny when he tries to sc ...

Wow I really wish I had known about this board a year ago! Yes the big conartist is still at and has just conned me out of a whole lot of money. And now I techniquely have one year of experience, sure he will give me a horrible reference since he is quite simply a bad man, and still cannot find a job. After reading all the other complaints about this man I simply do not understand how they are still in business. I made multiple phone calls today trying to figure out who to tur ...

Anybody who in interested in filing a class action lawsuit against Toth Transcription/AP Medical/AP MedWorkshops please contact.

A legal contact was inquiring about the connection of medical mistakes related to off-shored transcription mistakes. I have told him to review these boards and hopefully he will benefit from the information here. While he did not discuss the exact case, I think that he will be able to use the off-shore transcription issue to his client's benefit or at least highlight that the provider in question does not have as rigorous control on processing records as other pr ...

Since the advent of voice recognition and overseas outsourcing, transcription has ceased to be a profession. I will NEVER -- repeat, NEVER make the money I was making as a transcriptionist at a hospital 5 years ago, before we were replaced by VR and cheap outsourcing to India. Now all that's left are transcription companies here in the U.S. that don't want to pay much more, lie to us and tamper with our line counts. GET OUT, GET OUT OF TRANSCRIPTION! ...

It seems that everyone has negative things to say about how employers do not pay MTs what they're worth and how they offshore the easy stuff, but pile on the lousy ESL stuff on the transcriptionists in the States. Too bad there can't be a general strike of U.S. MTs - a day without transcription - just to show how we're needed. It seems to be the only thing employers would understand. Impossible, I know, but I bet employers would sit up and take notice. ...

If anyone, especially brand new rookie transcriptionists, get a job offer from DIT transcription, DO NOT TAKE IT!!! I have worked there for about 3 months now and have yet to be paid. They will not return my calls or emails regarding this (but they return promptly when I have a question about a dictation) and when the owner, ****, did finally email me back, he said the check was in the mail, and of course, it wasn't. I did research the company before I took the job an ...

Wow, did anybody read their ad? It is so full of DO NOT requests--do not call me, do not say you will do the work and then not do it, do not do this, do not do that, etc. I wonder if someone applying for the job included an equal number of DO NOTS for the MTSO if he or she would respond? I am thankful that I already have a good job. I would not want to work for anyone who is so negative in an ad. If it is this bad in an ad, how is s/he in person? She fails to ...
