Help! Need Legal Advice!

[Jim Roby]

I have been burnt a few times;send them an itimized bill showing charges
for your time,and materials provived.Place at the bottom a statement
of terms  Net 30     meaning payment in 30 days,wait 30 days and if they
don't come around take your bill to a collection agency...they will nic
you sometimes a 1/3 but something is better than nothing.Very often this
really gets their attention since they don't want bad marks on their credit
rating.Know that if the bill goes over 60 days,statistics say you can kiss
it good bye.You do have the right to take it to small claims court,and from
what I understand (never have personally) the court is very friendly to the
one who provided the labor.
