Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Colorado

Failure to pay for Internet Advertisement

I operate a web page on the Internet. I decided to sign up with an advertising company that would pay me when people viewed my site. I entered into an agreement with a certain company for about two weeks, during which their files showed that my account collected over $800 for my service of providing access to them when my page was viewed. Then one day I recieved an e-mail that my account had been terminated because of improper advertising methods. I was using what is called a pop-up (which they never exempted from use in their rules) and for that my account was irreversible terminated. I have written them several times requesting that the funds my account accrued be paid to me, and they have denied me each time. Do I have grounds to take any legal action against this company for witholding payment for services I rendered? Thank you for your consideration of my question.

The short answer is that you probably have grounds for recovery. If you have any written agreement spelling out the facts in your inquiry the case becomes stronger. If the amount is $800.00 the most efficient and quickest way to proceed is small claims court. Feel free to call if you wish to discuss in more detail.
