Small Claims Guide

This guide has been designed to help you work within the Small Claims Division. It was developed as an informational guide only, and not as legal advice. The guide should answer many of your questions about small claims. Please keep in mind that the Clerk’s Office is unable to give you legal advice; but if you have procedural questions, our staff in the Small Claims Division will be happy to assist you.
