2 issues here:

1. Your warrant and his possible abuse of the criminal process

2. Possible unfair firing and violations of labor laws for monies owed.

 

Normally I would say first talk to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission then your state's Department of Labor and last a lawyer.  But here you have the immediate issue of a possible arrest warrant or something, very minimum a criminal complaint.  So, try www.attorneypages.com and locate a criminal defense attorney to help you sort through this mess and then perhaps he or she can either help with the back pay issue or help you to next step in the employment law issues.
