What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
I will keep this short but will answer questions if asked.
Loaned 1485 dollars to my cousin in June of 2010. 1185 was paid to a mechanic for a repair (oh which I have the receipt and bank statement since I used my debit card and the shop was located in GA) and weeks later I wrote him a 300 dollar check because he needed money to pay for further repairs etc. I also have a copy of the check. It was verbally agreed upon that he would repay the money immediately. It is now December 2011 and not one dime as been repaid.
Although there is no written contract, I do have no less than four conversations online (e-mail, AIM, Facebook) and a text message on my phone stating that he agrees to pay me back the money he was lent.
He refuses to pay me and I want to file a small claim against him for the money. Would this be advantageous for me to try and collect 1500 dollars or not worth the hassle and headache?
