No I am not gunna say just eat it, or that is not enough, but I will say that sure in the fuck is not enough to get a lawyer envolved.

Gather all your evidence and proof that you can. (ussually person with the most documentation wins) Show that you tried to communicate with them via various methods. I would use at least one attempt using some sort of certified mail.

When that is all done, your best bet really will be a small claims case. In most states in the US the filing fee is 70.00 or less which can be attached to the case if you win, and neither party gets to have a lawyer (saves a crap load of fee's). As for your location, and theirs, well I am not sure where you are at and where they are at, but you may wish to at least file in the same county that do business or reside in. This will of course result in travel expenses, and dependant on the judge could be re-inbursed if you win.

I am not to sure if you can have someone else represent you since you do happen to be out of the country (assuming), though that very well may be a possibility.

I do know that if you wish to go the lawyer route, it really is not worth the effort unless the amount is in excess of 20k or your really wanting to proove a point and think the other party will be able to cover your legal expenses assuming that was listed in the contract. By the way next time include a choice of venue clause in your future contracts.
