Overview
You don’t need a lawyer when you know how to present a winning small claims case.
Preparing for your day in court can make the difference between receiving a check and writing one. Everybody’s Guide to Small Claims Court explains the steps necessary to sue someone or defend yourself in small claims court successfully. You’ll learn how to do the following:
- determine the case’s value
- draft a demand letter
- negotiate a settlement
- file and serve papers
- present supporting evidence
- question witnesses, and
- collect money when you win.
The revised edition’s settlement section includes powerful negotiation strategies and bargaining tips used by lawyers and businesspeople. Use them to help you settle small claims and other disagreements before trial or even when buying a car or negotiating employment and other contracts. You’ll also find sample letters, legal forms, and links to other resources, including an online statute of limitations chart to help you determine when you must file your case.
