What is the name of your state? Washington State
My husband and I have a small constuction company and have a client who is now refusing to pay the last invoice that we gave him yesterday. He says, "that we are screwing him like the last guy did" and he isn't going to pay us anymore. He has always paid us before this. This invoice is for $5,500.00. My husband was hired by this client to repair the remodel that another contractor mess up. This included drywall, window replacement, and kitchen cabinet installation. It was really bad. Anyway, it has taken a long time to fix this man's home and we realize that he has been through alot having his home in array for so long. My husband even gave him a discount in our labor prices to give him some relief because he prides himself in doing it right, not nasty like the last guy. We have signed contract and invoices that prove that we are charging him correctly and not "screwing" him. In tomorrow he will be in breach of contract and we will not wait and go ahead and file a lien against his property. My question is this...is there any other recourse we can do to make sure we receive payment from this customer? Also is there somewhere I can go to learn more about this kind of thing? We have only been in this business for 7 months now.
Thank you in advance!
