How we help with resignation because of unpaid wages

  • Evidence and document review

    Our review covers contract, wage-arrears schedule, payment demands, employer replies, proposed resignation and any complaint reference. We identify what supports your position and what needs clarification or further evidence.

  • Can I enforce unpaid Saudi wages through Najiz without a labour judgment?

    The executable employment-contract initiative provides a direct route for the wage clause when the Qiwa contract uses the executable unified form and has a Ministry of Justice execution number. HRSD describes eligibility after 30 days of complete non-payment or 90 days of partial payment from the due date. Check the contract's execution status and payment record first. This route does not automatically cover every bonus, dismissal claim or employment contract. Document the unpaid periods and previous demands, then assess notice, the proposed resignation wording and its consequences before leaving. Wage arrears and the way employment ends are separate issues; non-payment should not be assumed to remove every procedural requirement.

Successful Case

Private Right: SAR 750,000 Claim Dismissed

The client faced a financial claim of approximately SAR 750,000 based on bank transfers and an accounting report. CounselO Legal recharacterized the dispute, linked the movement of funds to operational documents, and made the financial release and its issuer’s authority central to the defense. The strategy resulted in the claim being dismissed in full, with the judgment later upheld on appeal.

How CounselO Legal Managed a Sensitive Accounting Review

This study explains how CounselO Legal treated a sensitive accounting review as a matter with potential legal consequences, rather than merely an accounting procedure. The strategy focused on demonstrating the client’s cooperation, defining the review’s scope, and preventing any unintended admission of liability or of the figures, while linking responses to accounting records and official documents instead of personal memory. CounselO Legal also ensured that reservations were included in the review minutes to protect the client’s signature and legal position later.
