Web Development Law/Ownership of Website
- by Jackson Buddingh
I'm a budding web developer, and I wondered if it was illegal to edit a website for a client to include a link that says 'encourage the owner of this site to pay their web developer' and follows up with a pre-made email encouraging the man to pay me.
Here are the conditions:
I've completed the work for the contract.
I've asked to be paid, and tried to set up meetings with the owner.
I've informed the owner of the site that my work will not continue unless I am paid.
I should have been paid nearly a month ago (12/27)
Any thoughts other than small claims?
This is my first web-development job!
