 Being that this group of hackers is one I trust, and that this is a pretty
 common scenario for contract programming, I thought I'd ask this group a
 question.  I hope you don't mind.

I want to thank everyone for their responses.  We will see where things go 
from here.

I wouldn't know about your country, whichever that may be, but in the
Netherlands it only takes two unpaid creditors to request bankruptcy
for a company with a judge.  Bankruptcy is declared when a company no
longer pays its dues (note that ability doesn't come into this), and 
two outstanding debts are the minimum required to establish that.

If all else fails, that kind of procedure gives a very strong incentive
to pay up.  Your country may have a similar arrangement.

In Canada we have small claims court. up to 10,1000$ and it only costs 
you 50$ to file a claim. They have to file a defense or settle within 30 
days. Usally if they owe you the money it forces them to do something, 
either settle or *really* drag it out, but it gets the process moving.
