>So, was I a goof and should have immediately given them invoices for the new rate (hindsight I know, but would help in future)? Should I wait a bit and say "You've had X weeks to review my contract and still nothing, so I'm going to bill you based on the new contract NOW"? or should I just grin and bear it?

I don't think you're a goof. Trust is a large part of any client relationship and you are aware of the risks faith entails, and it's rewards. I agree with your idea "You've had X weeks . . .". I would include something along the line of "I want to avoid problems and need to bill at the new rate now . . ."

Good luck,

Scott
