Legal Question in Business Law in Colorado

I signed a contract with a chiropractor for 76 visits. Prepaid. The contract states that if for any reason I need to discontinue services early, a refund for unused visits will be refunded within 60 days. I gave written/dated notice over 60 days ago. They keep telling me they are working on it. Aren't they in breech now? Is this something they will get into big trouble in court with, or is it not worth going to court over. I am expecting at least a $1500.00 refund.

As a Franchise Attorney I can say this. You might consider writing a final demand letter that says if you're not paid by Jan __, 2011 you will complain to the agency that licenses chiropractors in your state (need to research this) and file a legal action to recover money owned. Check to see if your contract has an attorneys fees clause in there, as this will help you as well. Consult with a good business or franchise attorney in your area for specific advice.
