When a customer decides not to pay your invoice, what do you do? Should you sue, or take the file to your collection agency? 

It's not always an easy question, and one that lawyer Howard "Howie" J. Sniderman has helped business leaders answer for decades. After listening to this episode, you'll be equipped to make the decision for yourself!

Learn how to create emotional distance from the problem, how to know if there's a “pot of gold at the end of the rainbow” if a dispute is likely, and what a lawyer will do for you compared to what you can expect from a collection agency with an in-house legal department like MetCredit.
