So, if are facing a payment problem, you have a lot of options. As Chris highlights here, some of the options available to you will depend on the type of
project, what your role is, etc, etc. Each of these things changes the situation slightly. Eventually, you may want to escalate the situation to a formal action
(with an attorney, collection agency, etc.). However that should neither be your first step, nor is it always the best first step. 1) Do you have a lienSee More...

You'll want to be careful with this situation as there are a lot of important details here. You may want to consult with a construction attorney in Colorado if it

The person who signed the contract with you owes you the money by contract law. It appears that you got a judgment against the lady, and therefore, you
