I was recently terminated without notice and without cause, I was supposed to receive payment in lieu of notice but they haven't payed. AskHR and local HR are not responding to emails so I contacted BACO which was quick in creating an HR ticket for me but still no response from them. Since its been over two months now I guess litigation is my next step. Anyone else have experience with this or recommendations on who to contact to avoid litigation? It's clear cut it is wrongful termination without the pay since my letter of employment states there will be notice and the IM manual gives the clause for payment in lieu of notice. However, court fee's and time spend trying to deal with Bermuda law is something I would like to avoid if at all possible.

Well fortunately they ended up paying. I CC upper level management with HR so they finally replied and I just received the payment, three months after termination.
Call HR and BACO first - they paid me everything and more. It took time but I got it all in my bank account
Good luck on that one, unless you can find an attorney to take your case willing to work on it only if a settlement is awarded I wouldn't waste your time.

I know we are not supposed to drop names here so let me give you some advise. If you google SLB lawsuits there is an attorney that is representing a mechanic in Houston. Her name rhymes with cracky. She did me well when dealing with SLB. I know this sound cryptic but I cannot advertise for her without permission.
