Description
Today's question is about dealing with unscrupulous clients who refuse to pay up. Are there any legal steps that you can take that will force your client to pay up even after you deliver your drone footage?
Our caller, Roy from Salt Lake City has come up with a question that has not been asked on ADU before. His client is refusing to pay up even though he is using Roy's copyrighted images to market his business. Not surprisingly, the client is avoiding Roy's calls and refusing to respond back to his emails. Is there anything that Roy can do to force his client into action? We discuss charging upfront, tracking misuse of copyrighted images, and filing a complaint with the DMCA.
Thanks for the great question, Roy. Fly Safe!
