VF - sounds like you need someone to be your business agent. I am also in business for myself and one of the first things I learned was to get at least your stock dough before starting a job. I always get at least 1/3 up front. If they don't have the $ to start you off you know you are not going to be paid in the end. Most jobs that are looking suspicious, I get 1/2 up front before strarting anything. Also just before the job is 100% complete, I ask for the final payment. If there is any sign of hesitation it is time to visit the courthouse!
If you think Maine is any better, ,you had better take another look. The same thing is going on in Maine, NH and anywhere you go.
