Re: personal loan
If he owns the repair business as a sole proprietor you don't need to sue the business. If he incorporated the business then, unless this was a loan to the corporation, the corporation wouldn't be responsible for his personal debts unless you can pierce the corporate veil. For $3,000, though, you're probably better off just suing him either way.
