Default Re: Small Claims Court Question

you probably don't need a lawyer. in fact, in california you're not allowed to have a lawyer represent you in small claims court - not sure about alabama.

if you have an address for the guy, send a letter giving him a deadline to do the work. write in the letter that if he doesn't make arrangements to do the work by the deadline, you will hire someone else to do the work, then bring a small claims action to collect what you paid the new contractor.

if he doesn't respond to your letter, then do exactly what you said you'd do in the letter.
