Re: collections
If you accept partial payment, you may be amending the agreement with the debtor, such that you cannot declare a future partial payment as a breach, which would give you the right to seek certain damages. There are variable that affect whether this occurs. Given the limited information you have provided, the best answer is Maybe.
Good Luck
