Legal Question in Business Law in Massachusetts

I advertise a landscaping ad in a local newspaper they failed to run the ad in the critical time of holiday cleanups for landscapers.

They said they must have herd me wrong and they were sorry for the

Inconvenience. But there is nothing they could do!

I informed them of the amount of lost work and income. Because of there error. I asked them if they would compensate me for the loss

Due to there error. They said they would not,it would set a bad precident?? I figured it cost me between 2000and 4000 dollars of

Lost income and not to mention repeat customers! Is there anything

Legally I can do about this?

You can file a small claims action against them in district court. The problem is that you have to prove the lost business.

If they ran an advertisement and billed you they should at a minimum refund the bill for running on the wrong date.
