Small Claims Guide

The small claims court can seem intimidating but it is designed to be used by ordinary people without a solicitor. Whether you are owed money, received faulty goods, had poor workmanship done, or need to defend a claim against you, this tool walks you through the entire process step by step.

Tell us about your situation and we will explain your chances of success, the costs involved, how to file or defend a claim, what evidence you need, and what happens on the day of the hearing. If you have any comments or would like additional tools, please leave a comment at the bottom of this page.
