    I had a client do something similar. They didn't have the money set aside to pay the bill when they hired me and they took a year and four months to pay the final invoice. I had hard costs I was carrying on the account as well. The only thing that saved them being brought into court was they emailed me once every couple of months and said "we're really sorry, our company has gone down the shitter, we'll pay you as soon as we have the money." To their credit, they were honest with me and eventually paid.

    From then on, I had every single client sign a contract. If they don't want to sign, then they aren't serious about working together.
