I'm owed money! Don't know what to do.

Hi
My first post, so I don't know if I'm in the correct place.
I was booked to do some work (I'm an entertainer) for a firm, who I later found out were a partnership. I did the work and invoiced them while they were a partnership.
After that they became a limited company and when I kept chasing for the money, they closed down the limited company and said they didn't have to pay me.
Is that right? I've tried reading some law websites but I don't understand it.
I thought as they were a partnership at the time, the partners still have to pay me? Does the limited get out of jail free card work backwards in time?
Thank you for any help!

Their status at time of invoice is what matters. The partners carry the liability.I am an Independent Financial Adviser (IFA). The comments I make are just my opinion and are for discussion purposes only. They are not financial advice and you should not treat them as such. If you feel an area discussed may be relevant to you, then please seek advice from an Independent Financial Adviser local to you.0

Hi
Thank you so much for replying.
Is there a link to anything I can print and send to them to show that?0 -
Send them a Letter before action, give them say 14 days, then sue them in the small claims court. You can do this online.make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
and we will never, ever return.0
