    Like formed said if you should really have a set schedule you bill all of your projects.

    Common methods of operating:

    50% up front, 50% on completion
    25% up front, 25% half way through, 50% on completion
    No up front (not recommended), bill every 2 weeks into project

    Setting up payment terms in your original contract will ease concerns like this.

    If you've completed the work, I'd send them the invoice for the final bill, and surrender the work completed only when that invoice is paid.

    You have to put yourself in a position not to get screwed. Clients will fuck with you through ignorance or malice - but it doesn't matter you still need your $$$$$$$$$$ !
