Small Claims Court
Small Claims Court is a special legal venue designed to resolve disputes involving relatively small amounts of money, typically ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, depending on the jurisdiction. It allows individuals to present their cases without the need for a lawyer, making the process more accessible and less formal.
In Small Claims Court, cases often involve issues like unpaid debts, property damage, or disputes between landlords and tenants. The process is usually quicker than traditional court proceedings, with judges making decisions based on the evidence presented by both parties, ensuring a fair resolution.
