Never take the site offline, that is a looser situation.
If you have ftp acces I would transfer the site to a private ftp, and
make an I-frame from the original location.
That way you protect your source files.
First you disable his CMS entrance (never something visible on the
frontside because that angries them, and they might sue you for hurting
their business).
Then you negotiate again.

This is a grey area. Did you draw up a contract when you started the
job? Deleting the live site could be deemed as an infringement of the
computer misuse act.
Do the easiest thing, sell the debt to a debt management agency and move
on to another job.
I bet the money you will lose doing this will be far less than the
amount you can make on another job in the time it takes to chase this
up!

Subject: [Flashcoders] My rights - site not paid for.
What are my rights ( in the UK ) for taking down a site which has not
been paid for?
The owner of the company is happy with his site, but is not coughing up.
I still have FTP access.
He says the site took too long, and makes lots of excuses for not
paying - which do not tally.
He changed the site drastically at least three times - I think it took
too long too, due to this.
He is updating the news section and other sections whenever he has new
material.
I would be interested in your thoughts.
This person won an award for being a top business man this year - is
this what you have to do to be a top business man - screw people?
I am not the kind of person to take this action really, but I may
consider it.
Thanks
S
