Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Pennsylvania
Can I sue?
I have just finished a book and I hired an illustrator to do 10 pics and the cover for $350. He began to work a payed in payments as he submited work. $100, $100, $100 but he stopped sending pictures. He said the work would take 2-3 weeks and it has been almost 2 months, causing a delay in the publishing. I have been trying to reach him for weeks now and he ignores my calls and emails. I have his address and he lives in Mi and I'm in PA wanted to know if I could sue? To date he has the full $350, I have all receipts, and saved emails.

Re: Can I sue?
Yes, you can sue. The question is where. Unless you have a contract that says you can sue in PA, its off to Michigan. The court would be Michigan's equivalent to the District Magistrate.
If you have any questions feel free to contact me. The initial consultation is free.
