If it's under $5,000.00 you can go to Small Claims and sue to collect. One definite advantage to Small Claims is that the Rules of Evidence are not followed.
Re: money not repaid
If you are not being paid and you want to collect your money, a lawyer could help. If you know how to do all the steps and collect a judgment, then you don't need a lawyer; but many lawyers do not know how to collect a judgment - and some don't know how to get one.
