The OP doesn't have a business. If he was concerned about his so-called "reputation," he would have behaved like a proper business person and fulfilled his part of the service commitment. Simply leaving it up to customers to chase him, who have paid him a reasonable fee for his services and expected some kind of service, is simply not on. If he wanted to retain any reputation he might have had, he would have communicated with his clients more effectively. Using the excuse of, "well, they didn't call me," doesn't wash I'm afraid.

He doesn't have a business! Sorry, somehow that slipped by me in thinking about the problem. I'm not surprised his business failed. So it is only his self respect -- his reputation to himself -- that is on the line. So up to him really. If the customer isn't happy they can take him to court. The court will hear from both sides ... and make a decision.

But who wants to go to court and spend money on solicitors? All the more reason to mediate and end the dispute so the OP can go on with his life.

I think it would be best to just find a way to meet your clients and discuss the matter with them. It would be far less stressful to do this than to meet at small claims court.

Best of luck to you.
