I am sorry for the issues. You may want to file a lien and see if that helps get payment. If that does not, and the amount at issue is $7500 or less, consider small claims. The Colorado judicial branch website has excellent instructions, overviews, links and forms. You should also consider going to the small claims clinic. The rules, the handbook, instructions, forms and other resources are all available here https://www.courts.state.co.us/Self_Help/smallclaims/
In addition to the above Colorado resources, Nolo Publishing has an excellent book that provides a plain English discussion of small claims. Here is the site http://www.nolo.com/products/everybodys-guide-to-small-claims-court-NSCC.html. Please note that the foregoing is not a representation that the information is all that one needs for your matter or a warranty on their accuracy.
If you cannot afford a full representation, you should contact an attorney and consider having a limited representation. In this representation, the attorney provides specified services and they do not enter as the attorney of record in the case. This is normally less expensive and requires a smaller retainer. Our office and others offer limited representation. This is a brief overview https://bit.ly/3xY5VJS.
I hope this helped answer your question and reach out to attorneys for a consultation right away.
