The Court Process A small claims case is a legal action filed in county court to settle minor legal disputes where the dollar amount involved is $8,000 or less. This amount does not include filing costs, interest, and attorneys' fees.
A small claims action begins by filing a Statement of Claim. Small claim cases should be filed with the clerk in the appropriate county. Filing fees for small claims actions are established in the Florida Statutes and local county ordinances. The clerk of court may be able to provide information on filing fees.
File a Small Claims Case You, the plaintiff, must file a “Statement of Claim” form, available at your Clerk's office. This must be fully completed and signed to receive a pre-trial conference date. If your claim is based upon written documentation, attach a copy of the contract to the Statement of Claim form.
