I sued once in small claims court. It never went to court. I filed the papers and within a few days they agreed to pay the amount they owed me out of court plus the filing fees/court costs so I never actually had to go in front of the judge and put on my case.
I had good evidence. This was sponsor program from several years ago that I sent traffic to, but never paid me. They owed me about $275 dollars. The only reason I sued them is they were from my same city. I can't even remember the name of the company it was one that popped up, was around for 6-9 months then disappeared. There were a ton of those back in 2000-2005. Anyway. They didn't pay me, but kept promising to pay and had a million excuses. Eventually, after several emails and months worth of going back and forth I threatened to sue them. They told me to bring it on that I had no case because I was going to get paid soon.
Had we gone to court I had the emails with the promises and the screenshots showing what I was owed so I feel like I would have likely won and obviously so did they.
