Small Claims Court

Paralegals are an effective and affordable way to go sue for money you're owed, or defend against lawsuits yourself. With the limit of the Small Claims court being $35,000, it is often a much more affordable way than a lawyer to pursue your legal interests. If your claim is more than $10,000, it is worth it for you and would be very advantageous to have a skilled negotiator and litigator representing your interests. If the other side is un-represented, you will have a strong advantage. And if the other side is represented, you will be at a strong disadvantage if you are not.

Small Claims court has it's own unique set of procedures and rules. It is a long and complex process, which encompasses numerous different stages. At Affordable Legal Services, we will assertively represent your interests throughout the entire process.
