Recently, I had a late payment situation with a client... Phones and e-mails worked to some extent... got some of the money after 5 months of desperate efforts. In the end, we negotiated a monthly payment schedule which seems to be working so far.

Always get paid at least 30% upfront. Some of my clients agreed to pay in full for a discount.
