Enforcing payment just got easier.

With this framework, you can:

→ Pause work confidently when payment is overdue, without guilt or second-guessing yourself

→ Set clear expectations upfront so clients know the rules before there's ever an issue

→ Protect your cash flow without damaging your reputation or client relationships

→ Avoid the "finishing projects for free" trap that costs you thousands every year

You're in the right place if...

  • You've ever continued working on a project while an invoice sat unpaid
  • You're tired of awkward "just checking in on that invoice" emails that go ignored
  • You want a professional way to enforce payment that doesn't make you the bad guy
  • You're a freelancer, consultant, designer, VA, copywriter, coach, or any service provider who invoices clients

Many agreements include a due date saying something like "Payment due within 15 days" or something similar. 

But what happens when day 16 arrives and you're still unpaid? What does your contract say? Is it silent?

Enforce Your Pay™ Framework fills that silence with clear, lawyer-drafted language that states exactly what happens when payment doesn't come through, and it does it in a way that's firm, fair, and professional.

Now you can enforce payment terms that both parties already agreed to.

Let your contract be the bad guy

I'm here to help

It's my job to help online business owners with legal logistics

I'm Michelle Wilson, a licensed attorney with 12+ years of experience (including time at the Department of Justice), and I've spent the last 6 years helping service providers & coaches protect their businesses through contracts and intellectual property.

I see the same pattern again and again with freelancers and service providers. These are talented professionals doing great work but struggling to actually get paid because their contracts don't have enforcement built in.

The Enforce Your Pay™ Framework fixes that.

Let your contract handle the hard conversations. You just do the great work and get paid for it.
