Legal Question in Business Law in New York

Re: Returned checks

The more friendly you can be toward the customer at this juncture, the greater your likelihood of getting paid, and the greater the goodwill you will engender (which is worth more than some piece of merchandise or a service any day); you will, however, need a paper trail showing your collections activity. Later, if being friendly doesn't work, it'll be time to haul out the heavy guns and do the certified letter routine. If certified mail doesn't work, you may have to send the matter to collections.

Good luck.
