  • Freelancer Ghosted After Delivering a Website—Here’s How We Recovered $8,000

📍 Introduction:
Online freelance work is booming, but so is contract abuse. Here’s how Lexchain helped a creative professional get paid after being ignored by a client who thought they could vanish.

📖 Case Story:
Emily, a freelance web developer, completed a custom build for a startup founder. Despite delivering everything on time, she was ghosted—no payment, no responses.

Lexchain reviewed the contract, email chain, and delivery proof. We drafted a formal demand letter backed by a small claims suit filing. Within 14 days of legal notice, the client paid $8,000 and agreed to cover late fees.

We also:

  • Reviewed and improved Emily’s contract templates

  • Helped her file a claim with the freelance platform where the deal originated

  • Referred her to our small business legal toolkit

📌 Legal Insight:
Digital contracts are enforceable—even without signatures. Lexchain enforces freelancers’ rights using civil law, contract law, and platform arbitration tools.
