Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Massachusetts

Thanks for your question.

What you need to do is send your ex-roommate a letter summarizing why he owes you this money, thanking him for the payments he has made on the debt, and demanding payment of the remainder. If he does not pay, you should file suit. This would be a small claims case. Our office may be able to assist you on a contingent fee basis, meaning that we are only paid our fees in the event that we recover your money.
