If you don't have enough tangible assets to satisfy a judgment, you might be forced to turn over a portion of your wages to the person or business who sued you until they've recouped what a court has determined you owe them. Other expected (future) assets besides wages can also be seized.
A letter of intent to sue is used to notify an individual or business that legal action may be taken against them if the demands included in the letter are not met. By sending an intent to sue letter, you may be able to resolve the dispute without having to initiate a costly lawsuit.
For example, if you are a plumber doing business as ABC Plumbing and want to sue a customer who has not paid you, you can file a claim for up to $10,000. If your business is a corporation, partnership or anything other than a sole proprietorship, your maximum claim amount is $5,000.
To begin a civil lawsuit in federal court, the plaintiff files a complaint with the court and ?serves? a copy of the complaint on the defendant.
If you want to ask for more than $10,000 (for individuals) or $5,000 (businesses and other entities), you need to sue in the civil division of the superior court and not in small claims court. In the civil division, lawyers can represent each side.
