Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Texas
recoup for services rendered
I provided babysitting for a friend and she refuses to pay me. My normal rate of pay was $200 for three days wk. I had them for a week, but there was no set contract what can I do?

Probably not much. If you had a definite agreement, including an offer and acceptance at your stated rate of pay, you might go to small claims court. Success is not assured and it would cost a fair amount of money and time. You might simply do better by ending the friendship and by being clearer in your dealings.
