It’s a do it yourself process.
– File
– Subpoena/serve the other party.
– Show up with your documentation.
It’s been years since I had a case in small claims – but it was pretty straight forward.
I found getting the judgement in my favor, easy.
Collecting… well that’s another story. There’s a woman out there that STILL owes me about $1200. But I made her life semi-miserable for a while. It was a car accident – she didn’t have insurance. So I proved that to the DMV and they pulled her license. She got insurance got her license back. I went to the DMV and showed she had an outstanding judgement from a motor vehicle accident, they pulled her license again.
Then she left the state.
