(Georgia) Friend dented my car and refuses to work with me A few weeks ago my friend was drunk and punched the hood of my car causing it to dent. I went to a body shop and the estimated cost is $1000. I've tried to contact him over and over again but I only get excuses each time. I left him voice mails, sent him text messages, and tomorrow I am sending a letter to his home. I am going to give him three days, after that I am going to do a motion to sue in civil court. Is this my best option? I am also giving him a option to pay me 50$ a week if not every two weeks but he still ignores me.
