After getting work done client denying payment. How can i recover it?


23-Oct-2023 (In Recovery Law)

I had accepted a outsource work(Translation) from a client. All the communications are done through emails.He made offer through email and i started working on it. Terms are saying that 50% would be paid after translation done and balance 50% after 10 days.I received payment of 50% and after 10 days when I asked client for balance payment he is denying saying my work is rejected by client. I asked him the reason for rejection and also offered him to make all the changes required free of cost but he is not providing me reasons. Moreover he is asking for payment already made. Please help me ?

You should have signed an agreement if you were doing free lancing working. Further if you were an employee then should have signed an appointment letter and then should have started work. Now,you have only option to send him a legal notice through lawyer and if the fail to pay then you can file suit for recovery

If you have sufficient documents for placing work order then i suggest you to issue a intimation letter directing him to pay the balance amount. If he doesnot pay, then it is better to file a recovery suit before the jurisdictional civil court.
