It seems the problem is not merely the bad check, but rather the unresponsive client. Generally, unresponsive clients need to be forced into again being responsive; merely appealing to their non-exist …

Assuming the contract dictates payment upon milestone completion regardless of whether the entire project is completed - and the client has paid in full, it seems they have no legal basis for a refund …

If you have given everything away, there might be very little you can do. All you can do now is hope that the client for some reason returns. If that happens, you have some leverage you MUST use. This …

It seems you are being way to nice. This is a business relationship that either needs to be completely fixed or ended. Since there is no contract, but you have keys to the castle so to speak, it seems …

I you have not yet threatened to pull the plug, you must do so. It is the only leverage you seem to have. Send a harshly worded letter stating they have one week to pay and secure a contract for furt …

Why would it be illegal? It seems you are buying a service (that you cannot provide) from your partner. Nothing wrong with that. Whether your company structure is optimal, is another matter that ve …
