Q: I had two people from an engineering firm in Puerto Rico take an online course and now I cant get them to pay me for it.
The amount is around $3000 US What are my options?
A: Attorneys who practice in Puerto Rico could advise best, but your question remains open for over two weeks. Did the agreement for the course you offered include any clauses about where disputes or collections would be handled? That could be the first thing to look into. One option is to approach local attorneys to discuss. Most jurisdictions have Small Claims divisions of their unified civil court systems. Rules could vary by region (permissibility of using attorneys, money caps, types of actions, etc.) That could be something to discuss with local attorneys. Good luck
A: Addendum - I just noticed that the manner in which I wrote my response may not have seemed fully clear. By "local," I should have made it clear that I meant local to Puerto Rico. Good luck
