In general terms yes ;)
I build a website for a customer and did seo/sem/content creation/affiliate management and whatnot. The customer only shipped the actual product.
The relationship had a lot of mistrust and bad vipes throughout the entire project, and when revenue skyrocketed the customer witheld the last couple of months of payment (fixed + revenue share) and jumped to another system.
I sued and neither lost nor won but something in between - paid the laywer+judges 50.000 USD and got nothing from the customer.
Spent countless hours being angry, nervous, sad, in court, talking to lawyer, bitching about the customer where I could have been working for new customers, building new projects etc.
These days whenever a project starts to smell I quickly walk away from it, only concentrating on those that makes sense.
The return from working with happy customers is much higher than spending time in court - also it is more fun!
