The only easy thing to do is to go to small claims court. (it's pretty cheap, around $30) and sue them. You can go to your local municipal court and find out exactly how to do it.\nSue them, for the money they owe you as well as for the time you were looking for work and for court expenses.

Small claims court is more informal than most types of courts. All you have to do is go and tell your story with any additional information you wish to give and the judge will decide based on law what is right. Small claims courts only deal with contract law and side issues like right to sue and licensing may be information but if the case is too complicated it belongs in a court with broader jurisdiction. You do not need a lawyer present but you can have one if you wish.

It all sounds like small claims court is the right place.  The defendant needs to show up and present her story (and it would help if the ex-boyfriend presents his.)  If anybody ha any evidence of who owns the stuff (receipts, etc.) it would help win the case.

Take your loss adn move on. Whatever your suing for will cost you more money in small claims court than you can get out of a company that went bankrupt. sorry

File a claim in small claims / justice court where you live. Get all the evidence you can that they are wrong and you are right. Where I live, the Justice Court will give you a form to fill out as the Complaint, and pay a fee, and they file it. Find out how to serve your tenants and then they have so many days to answer. If they don't, you can default them and get a judgment, then go after them to collect.\n\nThe Justice Court clerk can't give you legal advice, but they CAN provide forms and tell you the procedures. Attorneys usually aren't involved in small claim matters and it will save you a lot of money and give you experience in case you need to do it again for future renters.

Yep. Small claims. They will have to show up and they probably do not have the time so usually just the threat of court will be enough.  If they don't show, you win automatically.  I took my landlord to court and it was very satisfying to see him squirm in front of the judge.  That was worth more than the money he had to pay me!

call your local superior court and speak with thier Small Claims Advisor.  in a small claims case lawyers are not admissible in court and you will be on a level playing field with your defendant.  however there are limitations as to the ammount you can claim in small claims ct.  so,  pick up the small claims papers at your court, fill them out and have your SC advisor help you with anything you may not understand.  if you happen to live in Ca heres a good link to start off with for some general info.  good luck!\nhttp://www.courtinfo.ca.gov/selfhelp/smallclaims/

Go to a lawyer (look in the phone book, many offer free consultations) and tell them your story.  If they think you have a winnable case, then they can represent you in a lawsuit.

open your phone book go to labor relations if ya can't find that, talk to the employer  (BE NICE) and then if no luck go to small claims court you don't need an attorney and the cost is about $45. to file be sure to sue for court cost too so ya can recover your filling fee and cost of copies of paper work or whatever. You must have proof of all that you are going after though. Good luck

is this all you have to worry about, the thing only costs about $100 or so. if you really want it drive-fly whatever  to the friends' and pick it up.  in small claimes you have to sue in the county where the defendant lives, so you will have to travel there anyway  to file so just go get it.

If the amount in dispute is relatively small, you can also check out Small Claims courts (sometimes called Municipal courts in some states).\n\nGenerally, neither party has an attorney, and the court listens to both sides and looks at available evidence, before reaching a reasonable conclusion. It's a much less expensive and must less time-consuming way to resolve simple disputes.\n\nBut if the issues are complex, competent legal advice from a licensed attorney is always a good idea.
