Hello, I have a bit of a different question I guess.
A couple months ago I setup an advertising package for a client for $1500 or so for a year of advertising. Most of my advertisers pay upfront for the entire year, but he asked to pay month to month so I figured it would be a nice monthly fixed income. However, I made him sign a contract saying advertising would be kept for a year. That way the 4-5 hours I spent inserting advertising on pages/sites wouldn't go to waste after a month or two when I didn't hear from him.
Well as I expected, eventually the advertising money stopped coming in. The contract stated if contract was terminated by their company, they would be responsible for the remainder of the amount within 2 weeks. That time has come and gone, and now I have to take further action. Also please note..throughout this time I have recieved numerous emails stating money was on its way for 2 months now..only to get some excuse, like it takes months to Neteller a payment..
My simple question is what should I do now? Is there a place online to file a complaint and start a suit? Since we are in different states I am a bit confused, do I just file it as a normal lawsuit at my courthouse or where they are filed? I have no doubts it would be an easily won case..I just need to know where to file from people who have had to do it before, or those knowledgable of the situation.
I appreciate any advice you could give. Thanks a lot!!
