That sounds like a set-up to a bad joke... like, "How can you tell if there is an elephant in your refrigerator?... By the footprints in the Jello!  [insert roaring laughter here]

But, assuming that you aren't holding back a punchline, I have never had any problems collecting from an attorney.  I was once told that I never had to worry about non-paying attorneys because the bar frowns upon attorneys that can't manage their finances.  You might start with a nice letter to her and explain that if you can't work something out, you will report her to the bar.

If she is a title agent, her underwriter might also be interested.  When agents aren't paying their abstractors it could be a sign of troubles ahead.  Her underwriters might want to schedule an audit to check out her escrow accounts.

If that doesn't work... turn it over to a collections agency, file a small claims action, or hire an attorney - just like you would with anyone else.

Of course, I regard all those actions as last resorts.  I wouldn't want to cause all that trouble for someone who was maybe in a temporary jam, or something.  That is why communication is so important. 

I hope you are able to resolve the issues with her amicably.

Best,
Robert A. Franco
