Small Claims Court

Get Free Legal Support for Your Small Claims Court Case

Small Claims Court is where disputes that involve smaller amounts of money are settled. This may include getting a refund from an auto repair shop, a refund for a large appliance that you purchased that doesn’t work, property damage, or a check you received that bounced. 

The maximum amount of money you can sue for depends on what you are suing for and where you are. For example: 

  • New York City: $10,000
  • Nassau and Suffolk Counties: $5,000
  • Other City Courts: $5,000
  • Town and Village Courts: $3,000
