You finished the job, sent the invoice, and waited. Days turned into weeks, and weeks into silence. For many service companies, this story is all too familiar.
When a client refuses to pay, it can disrupt operations, cash flow, and morale. A clear contract is supposed to protect you, but enforcement often requires legal intervention.
At Alisme Law, we represent companies, contractors, and small business owners who have completed their work but are still waiting to be paid.
Understanding Payment Disputes in Service Contracts
A payment dispute occurs when one party performs the work outlined in a contract, but the other fails to deliver payment. These cases often stem from:
- Disagreements over service quality or timing
- Clients withholding payment to gain leverage
- Poorly written or ambiguous contracts
Even with written agreements, clients may exploit vague terms or delay tactics to avoid payment.
Your Legal Rights When a Client Refuses to Pay
If you have fulfilled your end of the bargain, the law is on your side.
Common remedies include:
- Seeking interest and attorney’s fees under contract terms
- Pursuing mediation or litigation to recover unpaid amounts
Alisme Law helps service providers understand their rights and take decisive action to recover what they are owed.
