late payment was created by stevens-smith
A company we have worked for will not pay the last invoice, he has paid the 2 invoices prior to this last one, we also have a text saying he is happy with the work. Now we have invoiced the last bill and he says he is not paying because he has a dispute with another company regarding products he has not received and he had purchased them through us, this is not right we where only due to fit them and he had paid the deposit ect direct to the other company.where do i stand.

Hello Sharron
So there is no dispute on the last invoice. He is just withholding payment of the invoice because because of a dispute with another company.
I think you should make it clear that the products supplied by the other company are nothing to do with you and that he cannot use that as an excuse not to pay you!
Depending on the amounts involved it may be beneficial to try and resolve the situation with the other company and the missing parts. That will be an easier solution in the first instance.
If you feel though that he may be making excuses to deliberately avoid paying the invoice (even though he paid the other two) then you may need to consider a different approach.

I hope that helps

David
