My suggestion would be to attempt to see him in person. He may not have intended to have the check bounce as sometimes there are good reasons why this happens. A good opener is to determine if he is happy with the work you did. If not, then explore that avenue and correct it if possible. If so, then try to find the reason the check was not good. If the customer makes it good, problem over. If not, a well-worded letter from your attorney may to the trick. It may be necessary to go to small claims court to get a judgement. At this point, you have to weigh the cost of time and money against the loss of payment. You have several options, its just a matter of picking the best one. Mike Kurta
