Most lawyers will give you a 30 min free first meeting. This is a great way to see if legal action is nessasary. You may be able to file through small claims for minimal fees.
The problem with claiming legal fees is that you have to put them out first and then, if you win, you will get them back later. Not something I have the money to bank on, I don't know about any of you.
In that first 30 minutes of free legal advise they will probably give you key phrases to use in an email, which will make you look like you're seeking legal council and may just scare her enough to pay you and be gone.

Yes, it's binding. And two, I am gonna go out on a limb here and bet that if the tables were turned and her employer owed her $500 she would see the cause to go after it and it Would "make or break her".
Good Lord, what is it with people and double standards?
I would totally send her a registered letter telling her she needs to pay you in CASH or certified cheque by XX date and that if payment is not received you will be filing a suit against her in small claims. And if she does not pay then GO AND FILE suit. When she loses she will have to not only pay for the $500 but for the day's pay you lost to go to court and the fee to file.

Holy crap what a bit@h!! I would totally take her to small claims, even if I only broke even just to show her you will NOT be treated that way!

Keep those texts!! It will prove that she knew she owes you that money, but is choosing not to pay.
What a beeeyotch!!
