I live in Florida and I did work for a person living in Texas, after work was complete he refused to pay and sent a text saying to f-off he got what he needed. I would like to file in small claims court but would like to know if I can include travel expenses or if the court would allow me to appear by phone. If I latter wanted an attorney can I amend the suite and add attorneys fees. I would also like an idea of what it would cost for an attorney to handle this.

hi you need a letter of demand first to send to the non-payer it would be best to self-represent you probably need to go to texas in person and you can include expenses in your claim i've put 49 and that would be sufficient to cover the letter of demand and answer any current or future questions about it

Hello, and sorry to read about your troubles with this person who had hired you. First, what county in Texas did this work take place? I only ask as Texas fees on filing a small claim and the type of services they offer vary from county to county. Also, you don't want two years to pass by, so keep that in mind while you get as much info as possible to file a successful claim. Another important question is, did you and this person file a contract for the work you did? If so, you got up to 4 years to file at a supreme court and may be awarded substantially a lot more than a small claim. Was the person a proprietor, partnership or corporation? You need to file it correctly and to the party responsible, if not it will be thrown out. As for attornies, most charge a retainer fee at around $3000 just to start and it goes up from there! Not worth it if you go via small claims. If you decide to go beyond small claims court, you may request the superior court to waive the fee according to your financial situation or hardship. FYI, I'm not an attorney or legal professionals and can only offer aid via remote online research and from personal experience in the matter of filing suit.

Hello, And thank you for the opportunity to bid on your project. Let me start off saying that I am sorry to hear you've had to endure this situation. However, I can help you through it. As a civil paralegal I have drafted pleadings for small claims court thousands of times over the decades. I have also drafted documents for state, federal, bankruptcy and appeals courts; as well as for SCOTUS itself. While I am not an attorney; and therefore cannot "represent" you; I can draft the documents you need to get justice "pro se" (representing yourself; without an attorney). I would begin with a review of your synopsis of the case. Then I would review the evidence you have. Finally I would draft your documents package. This will include your complaint, coversheet, and administrative forms. It will also include a motion asking the judge to allow telephonic and/or video appearances (your local court clerk could arrange that for you). Although I live in South Florida, I am very familiar with the laws in Texas, having lived and worked in Houston for 10 years. So, I (in my opinion) am your best bet short of hiring an attorney. The difference is that my fees are much lower. I charge $250 for the first package; $150 for each document filing thereafter. A case like this should not take more than one filing (this one). I can begin as soon as you award the project and fund the milestone escrow. PM to discuss in more detail. Thank you for your time. I look forward to assisting you.
