    Posted: 04/May/2005 at 12:31am

My company did a job a few weeks back, and the customer refused to pay.  We cleaned the lobby of a small hotel,moved sofas and everything,took a whole sh*t load of dirt and mud out, and the owner of the hotel told me he didn't like the job, i left the invoice with the girl at the front desk, and when i called him he told me he's not making out the check...i told him he needed to pay, he never did,,,,

How can i  collect payment by law??????

There's nothing you can do but take him to small claims court. I think you should also have them sign a wavier before you start the job.......not so much home owners but big companies that feel they can pull this kind of sh*t and get away with it.  The guy probably does it twice a year to different companies.

Mike sometimes it is a hassle and a time commitment on your part that may not make it worth while.  Sometimes you have to let it go and learn to listen to your instincts.
