Product Description

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 successfully sue someone or defend a case in small claims court, including how to:



  • 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.


This edition includes powerful negotiation strategies and bargaining tips that are not only used by lawyers and businesspeople to settle disagreements before trial, but that apply in other situations, such as 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 a case.
