More details to this question:
I have a registered LLC in NYU . My client who I have continued doing work for now owes me $6,412.37. I believe this exceeds the limit for small claims court . What is the best way to start action against them without it costing myself a lot of money out of pocket. I have sent numerous emails and phone calls with no response. Can someone guide me in the direction I need to recover this money. The other company is a viable company and is not closing any time soon. They are just choosing to ignore my request for payment. I have all purchase orders and invoice to show the work was complete.

What is "NYU". Do you mean New York State or New York City? Small claims in $5000 in NYC and $3000 outside of NYC. So, you are right, it is more. That means a Civil Court suit if in NYC, but not a full blown Supreme Court suit. Attorney fees are not recoverable. You are looking at around $1500.
