Sent a demand letter myself and the company just ignored it

I wrote a formal letter asking for a $400 refund after a service was not provided, following a template I found online. They never replied, and now I'm stuck wondering if I should pay a lawyer or just drop it. Has anyone had a similar thing happen and what did you do next?

I used to think small claims court was too much hassle, but it worked for me.

Totally agree, I had the exact same change of heart. My old landlord tried to keep my whole deposit for a carpet cleaning fee that was in the lease as normal wear and tear. Filled out the forms online (which was way easier than I thought), showed up with my copy of the lease, and the judge ruled in my favor in like ten minutes. Got my check two weeks later. It felt so good to stand up for myself without needing a lawyer.
