You absolutely have a contract claim (if the facts are as you stated above). Depending on the language of the contract and the facts involved in the breach, you may be able to negotiate a "settlement" of the remaining funds on the contract without filing a lawsuit. If you need to file a lawsuit (or want to do so) you may also be entitled to attorney's fees as a prevailing party - depending again on the language of the contract.
