My contract requires 4 weeks notice for termination. Payment is due regardless of attendance. What are my chances in small claims court. Total is $830. Cand you also sue in court for them to cover court costs?

They also forfeit a deposit put down for their other child, but I'm not subtracting that amount from what they would owe.- Flag

Yes, send a certified letter, give specific date for the money to be paid, total amount including any fees, highlighted copy of their signed contract where it states termination policy, and hope they pay befor shaving to go that route. But I would definitely take it up for that much money!- Flag

You'd likely win. But regardless, I'd still pursue it. Mind you, I will take a parent to court for anything owed over $100... principle.
My contract states that parents will continue to be charged $30/day until fees are paid in FULL, court and lawyer fees plus any time missed from work will also be included their bill.
Send a certified letter with an invoice and due date. Also mention that if fees are not paid in full by the due date that you will be taking legal action.- Flag

Regardless of the amount you probably would win, and you can add in late fees and court costs, so you wouldn't be out anything out-of-pocket.- Flag
