Can I sue for more than $5,000 in Small Claims Court? If your claim is for more than $5,000 in either Nassau or Suffolk county you must start a civil case. In NYC you may sue for up to $10,000 in Small Claims Court. You cannot split your claim into smaller claims to get around the limit.
Conclusion: Going to small claims court may be worth it for $500, but it will determine how you weigh your costs versus benefits. At a minimum, it is worth it to send a demand letter.
Be on your best behavior But be prepared to wait for your case to be called. Your judge will be hearing several other cases on the same day as yours. If your case is called and you are not there, the judge may dismiss it. Show respect to the judge by calling him or her “your honor." Don't use profanity.
