The "taken down for lack of payment" will add fuel to the fire and may create some liability for you.

Liability for WHAT?

she didn't pay the bill and the site was taken down because of that.

Anyone can sue you for any reason at any time. She is the one with LIABILITY, not the OP.

The OP has $3K in actual damages. and is not suing because it is not worth the effort. The client in question does NOT HAVE ANY MONEY. How you expect them to sue is beyond me. Plus the bad PR that would come out of that is not worth it for the Realtor.

Realistically the only person who would SEE that page is the deadbeat Realtor/client. But the perception that OTHERS might see it would be an incentive to pay up....maybe.

or just keep walking on eggshells and maybe she'll pay up.

dream on.
