One thing to add to the other good replies-
The one downside to filing in small claims court in Oregon, if that is
one of your options, is they can escalate the suit to a higher court. I
forget the exact details now, but Oregon law is screwy in this regard.
Most states keep small claims cases in small claims court. Once it's in
a higher court there is no way you can represent yourself successfully-
the paperwork alone requires a trained person to handle it.
