Small Claims Procedure

Small claims court procedures vary by state, but generally, small claims cases are designed to be heard and resolved quickly and inexpensively. In general, small claims court cases involve disputes between parties over relatively small amounts of money, usually less than $10,000. Parties represent themselves in small claims court, and the proceedings are typically informal and relaxed compared to a formal court setting. If you need more specific information on small claims procedures in a particular state, it’s best to consult with a local attorney.
