What we
see go wrong
Cheap to avoid at the start. Expensive to fix later.
Threatening criminal charges to get paid
Saying you’ll call the police unless they pay can count as extortion in many states. Name a civil next step, like small claims, instead.
Calling them out online before they pay
A public post accusing them can invite a defamation claim and give them a reason to fight. Keep it between you, in writing, until you’re paid.
Skipping the notice your contract requires
Many contracts require written notice, a cure period or arbitration first. Miss one and your case can stall, so follow each step before you sue.
Cashing a check marked “paid in full”
Depositing a partial payment marked that way can settle the whole debt for less. Ask how to respond before you cash it.
Letting the filing deadline pass while you wait
Every claim has a state filing deadline, sometimes one or two years. Find yours on day one and set your demand deadline well before it.
Stopping once you win the judgment
A judgment doesn’t move money by itself. If they still won’t pay, collect it through a wage garnishment, a bank levy or a lien.
Results
Real examples of how we’ve helped people get paid.
A landlord kept a $4,000 deposit. The claim grew to $12,000 plus interest.
The landlord sent photos of “damage” but never an itemized list. Inhouse found California’s 21-day itemizing rule and its bad faith penalty of up to twice the deposit, then prepared the small claims case.
