A client refuses to pay my invoice — how do I collect?
I did contracted work for a business and they have refused to pay a $9,000 invoice for two months. What are my options to collect?

Start with a written demand letter referencing the contract and the amount owed. If that fails, you can sue for breach of contract; amounts up to a statutory limit can go to small claims (justice) court, while larger disputes go to county or district court. A well-drafted contract that allows recovery of attorney's fees and interest strengthens your position.
