My contract with my agency had a clause(apparently) that contractor(I) cannot use subcontractors. I simply did not see that clause when signing. However using subcontractors was communicated to the client in the initial interview, also from the start of the contract ,the clientCo Project Manager was fully aware that I use subcontractors.
I delivered as required and deployed a software product that was requested of me and then a new set of functionality was requested for second release. I had started the development process. At this time the contract was terminated.
So clientCo does not want to pay for anything , citing contractor using subcontractors is a security risk.
I can't take my agency to court because , as mentioned, apparently my agency contract forbids subcontractors.
My question is : Is a client legally obliged to pay the days worked until termination, considering the client's point of contact- Project Manager - was aware and approving of the fact contractor was using subcontractor(s)....
This is in Germany btw ... a language I do not sprache.
