Invoice past due over 90 days with no response
I worked with a print consultant and did some
production work for her client. She has a signed client
approval forms where the Production Art/Design
Service component is broken out. I also met with
the client along with the consultant and he gave verbal
approval for me to do the work..so there is a witness,
the consultant). After all the work was done, I invoiced
the client on 6/25/02. I faxed a statement through on
8/9/02 stating that I had not received a payment, wanted
to make sure they had received my first invoice and
check on the status of the payment, still receiving no
response. On 9/6/02 I left a voice mail stating who I
was, recapping that I had sent and faxed the invoice on
the previously noted dates and stated that I still had
received no cheque. I requested that they call me and
still have heard no response. What is my best option at
this point? Should I send a certified letter from myself
recapping in writing the events of this situation and also
state that my next action will be filing in small claims
court? Or at this point should I just proceed to filing the
claim?

Re: Invoice past due over 90 days with no response
I would send him one more letter, certified, then take him to small claims court. Make sure to attach a copy of your invoice to the complaint, as the civil rules require a copy of the account to be part of the complaint. E-mail if you need further help.
