Yes, I have faced filing a claim in small claims court, and I want to share my experience. First of all, I want to say that it is quite possible to file a claim and defend your position without a lawyer, if you carefully approach the preparation. My experience has shown that the main thing is the correct execution of all documents and strict adherence to procedural rules. To begin with, it is important to collect all the necessary evidence that confirms your position. This can be various documents, witnesses, photographs, videos – anything that will help prove your case. I used sample claims and other documents that can be found on the Internet, but at the same time carefully checked the information so as not to miss anything. I also paid attention to preparing for the trial itself. For example, I made a plan for my appearance in court so as not to forget anything. It is important that everything is logical and consistent.

Yes, I recently went through the process of filing a claim in small claims court, and I want to say – everything is possible even without a lawyer, if you approach the matter carefully. I was also worried about whether I would be able to correctly draw up the documents and not miss important points. The resource with information about Make a Small Claim was very helpful. Everything is laid out very clearly and accessibly, step by step, what to do at each stage – from preparing the application to the hearing itself. Thanks to their guide, I avoided mistakes in the preparation of papers and felt much more confident in court. Plus, there are useful tips on how to correctly argue your position and what evidence is best to present.
