| restitution. The only payment I accept at that point is payment in

| to sue because their lawyer is non-existent.
|
| If the client isn't a dickhead and is just going through rough times
| then the above does not occur.
| I have a few folks coasting on their bill due to financial difficulty
| but I know they will make good on their debts when they can.

| Rules are simple:
| Call me and tell me times are tough. If I have to call you first then
| we have an issue. Stay in touch throughout the timeframe and keep me
| apprised of the situation and all is well.
