Should I take them to Small Claims?

[Justin Case]

Glad I found this board!
I am new to this..

I have owned 4 rentals for 14 months now in Seattle Area.
I evicted a party of two in a townhome. One of the people went MIA. The other roomate paid their own portion and vacated.
Legally, both names on the lease, owe me a total of $1350, a bit more than one months rent. Is it worth my time taking them to small claims court for the $1350?
To me it is the principal of one of them ripping me off and getting away with it. The one who paid all they could was nice and apologetic and never heard from their MIA roommate.

I asked my (X) mentor/ RE agent and they said thet would help me for $175/hr consulting fee. I was shocked. I called a law office and they gave me tons of info for free!
Now I consider them my X RE agent! They already made a lot of money from me buying several places and I see the greed set in them trying to take advantage.. sorry I had to vent..

Is it worth the time and paperwork to go to small claims for $1350?
I do not have the tenant who went MIA mail address to deliver the court notice.

I appreciate you opinion and insight on this.
