I went to a small claims court and won against an attorney. You will experience a lot and I mean a LOT of intimidation from the attorney but never back down. All you need is courage
@TheMrMarple it was a collision case. And my advice to you is Just be prepared be confident in yourself and bring some that will motivate you because it's very important for example when I went for my court case which was an accident case, we were brought into a room to try and settle the matter rather than taking the case to court, the damage the defendant made to my car is worth more than 3000 but when we were in the room trying to resolve the case, the attorney offered me 800 instead of a reasonable amount that would fix my car half way at least. With that been said, she told me to my face that it's better I accept the 800 and leave bcs I'm not experienced and there's no how I'd win the case and also considering I'm not from American and my English isn't that good, I stand no chance. I got so intimidated that I wanted to talk away with the 800 so bad but I had my dad who motivated me and pushed to reject the 800 offered and argue it out in court and finally I gained the courage to go ahead with the case and I finally came out with all smile on my face. I sued the defendant for 5000, won 4500 and fixed my car with 3200 and few cents........just believe in yourself, take someone who will motivate you, dress nice and get all your evidence ready and you'll be good.....goodluck
Wow. One company says they will sue me unless I sign their confidentiality agreement. I don't want to sign it but then they will sue me. I am so scared. I hope I can have some courage like you did.
I have my first small claims case soon against contractors who ripped me off, then threatened and tried to intimidate me. I didn't know they had serious criminal backgrounds when I hired them. The average person doesn't have access to extensive court records online, and I was given false names, so no red flags popped up before I hired them. I have contracts, texts and pictures, including the local inspector's detailed report, to prove everything, AND the cooperation of the terrific contractor who fixed the mess and didn't overcharge me. I have a diagnosed severe anxiety disorder and hate speaking in public. The amount owed me is not enough to merit hiring a lawyer, so I have to do this myself. To anyone out there ripped off during Covid, if I can do this, you can too.
Use courtlink--it will send them a summons and I am doing it now with a car dealer.BTW a lawyer told me that if you are right--in which he would say most plaintiffs with documemts and receipts--(proof) are--90% the defendants settle before court and pay once they get summons.Just have photos and receipts,The cases that wind up in court also usually heavily favor the plaintiff unless it is a fake claim--or a claim meant to intimidate or embarass--lawyer said you go simply to get money you are legit owed and you will most likely win.
I have the similar case as you. Mine is the sunroom not build properly, water and insects all came in. CSLB n insurance bond looks like protecting their own contractor customers. I'm wondering how long time did you take the entire small claim process? How was your case finally? Thanks
I live in Tennessee, and just realized how lucky I am to be able to sue up to $25,000. My home contractors ruined my house and I am taking them to small claims to (hopefully) get $24,999. I go in two days. Wish me luck!
You are great. I have a court soon for security deposit with landlord they not only didn't want to return my money but took over the allowed 30 days to return my money
I have my first small claims court tomorrow and this really helped, I'm hopefully on my way to victory. I have a lot of evidence and hopefully I am ready to execute it perfectly.
I will be addressing willful negligence and the unauthorized use of used damaged components in repairing the braking system on my vehicle with the business owner who didn't directly oversee the repair. This was very helpful information, but I hope I won't need it!
Remember lair liar movie when Jim says even if i got the judgement you probably stiff me anyway is pretty much it.So even if you win you have to chase after the money and also need a sheriff to do it when you can.So DON'T LEND MONEY TO ANYONE !
I am the defendant and I hope that the judge decides in my favor. Are there any special tips for me/defendants who have to attend via Zoom? I live outside Chicago and the case originates in Boston.
I am taking judge and a attorney a Mayor and Clerk of courts to small claims court. For stopping my cancer treatments for a simple violations of expired sticker. The judge is September 11th. I think I'm ready, but, couldn't get back on schedule for 6months on my treatments. Advise?
I am in LA and it deals with a mediation. In my opinion I feel the party breached the mediation and confidentiality. It was signed per myself and another individual. The corporation is claiming I breached it and fined me for it home owners association. The fine I believe is not valid no due process, but the issue I have is why are they not using the court system or remediation? It really feels like attempted extortion with the fine?
What kinda Attorney takes cases against UPS. Or do I take them to small claims court in Contra Costa County, Ca. 3 years ago a UPS driver started retaliating against me for reporting him for false delivery attempts. He now falsify tracking logistics changing it to I requested my packages be held for pick up at UPS. Packages are returned to the seller after a week of sitting at UPS. I have a paper trail of emails to Customer service. They haven't did anything to fix my problem. It's more but too much to write.
I find your videos very informative. I live in Wilmington DE, but I flew out of New York with Royal Air Marco internationally in January and February they lost my bags both ways and only give me one bag. I filled a claim But they are telling me they can only give me $700 dollars for all my stuff they lost. I feel I have a strong case but I have never done anything like this before Please help
I’m being suede in small claims for $350 re: a poor cosmetic result they gave me. I have already paid them 1,400 the 350 was the remaining because I went elsewhere to fix it best as possible I stopped the last payment of 350
I have a question, I want to file against my phone carrier, and insurance coverage. but its with customer service and the insurance company. I have paper work. this is alll due to failure to give me a replacement phone when I pay for insurance Its for my iPhone replacement, so I currently have a android right now and still have not been given my phone because they just dont want me to get my replacement it gets me sick because its cruel and sick.
If someone makes an email change for documents, and email is wrong will they get the court date by mail if it was efiled? 🤔 I just wonder if I wonder if I won my case if defendant email is wrong
Is it possible to win some but not all of the financial damages you are seeking in small claims court? For example: I'm seeking $3600. $1000 of that will be easy to prove liability & damages. The rest of the $3600, won't be so easy. Might a judge award me the $1000, but not the full $3600? Does going after the full $3600 hurt my chances of an overall successful outcome?
I went to small claims court and the judge told me I will receive a decision in the mail as oppose to telling me and the other party what his verdict was. Usually small claims judges will tell you what the decision after the close of the case. This is what happens on t.v.
Hi, A question , I was called for a Hearing for a lawsuit against me buy my bank for a credit card payment . I was outta of the states and couldnt make it , what happens next?
You should've left a contact number, should've contacted the bank to try and settle, because now they'll seek payment and trust me your name will pop up anywhere else you try opening an account. Get it they won by default.
I need your help. My landlord has not given our security deposit back even after leaving the house and giving him keys and address. It’s been 30 days already and he is not replying to any messages or phone calls. He has not given money of my 3 roommates. As we are students , we cannot afford to hire attorney. Would you please help me with it ???
Check your state's statue of timeframe to file suit, some states are up to 4 years. Call the justice of the peace in the county where you rented, they can walk you through their website to file a small claims case, or you can go in person and they will had you the forms to file
My ex boyfriend filed a small claims against me for the money he spent on me. It was dated and gifts, he also added some clothing items I never took probably to add more to his case. I am freaking out because I have never been involved in any of this stuff.
I've experienced a financial loss and unsolvable disagreement with the USPS. I filed a claim at the county magistrate's office. I quickly received a letter from the USPS telling me that they "Enjoy Sovereign Immunity " and cannot litigate them at the state level. Google research seems to confirm the same thing. About a month later I received a letter from the court advising both parties to meet next month. I'm so intimidated, and it may be true that this court judge has no jurisdiction over the USPS after all. It feels like David against Goliath. I think I have enough written proof to show culpability and that I'm right, but I also understand how the world works.... sometimes things just aren't fair. I'm hoping at least for some mediation.
He lost the case probly cuz everyone loses damage claims against USPS. That is their *specific immunity type* is *small claims and damages incurred to mail* that was entrusted to them.
@@farcyde2948 My case is still on the docket for Monday. Their lawyer started calling and leaving emails as of yesterday. They tried to convince me to drop the case and promised to look into my claim again. I told them they waited too long, we're not canceling anything, if if the magistrate judge can't settle our disagreement then we'd do at the federal level.
You said they offered to... "Look into" your claim once more? So pretty much do nothing and stall for time that's what they're offering you? What an incredible insult.
@@farcyde2948 I think they want me to either not show up for court by intimidating me... and since that didn't work, they want me to drop the claim by dangling a fake carrot.
@@farcyde2948 Turns out that your right. At the last minute their lawyer contacted the magistrate judge to have the case dismissed over jurisdiction. I'm still showing up though. And I'll ask then how to I take it to the correct (federal level?). Hopefully it won't cost that much and I can represent myself. It's really not that much that I lost, but the principle of the matter eats me up.
A roomie stole a 2.5k road bike from me and sold it behind my back. When I found out the hassle and cost to file a claim against someone who I knew would not be able to pay me back, because he was a drug addict at the time, hooked on heroin, I said to myself, small claims court blows! I should've insured the bicycle could've just got my refund but most don't insure things like bikes.
