If you are not a licensed lawyer, you may represent only yourself. Representing anyone but yourself is illegal. If you lose your action, you likely will have to pay some costs that the winning party incurred during the lawsuit. Costs can be expensive.
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. You may file by mail or in person.

Submitting Probate Orders All proposed probate orders must be submitted directly to the 15th Judicial Circuit Court's online scheduling system (OLS). They cannot be submitted in person, by mail or email to the court or to the Clerk's office. They also cannot be filed through the e-filing portal.
When a petition is filed, the plaintiff and defendant are given the opportunity to settle the case privately or use an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) process rather than going to trial. The court may also provide a summary judgment. If the case goes to trial, the judge will ultimately issue a verdict.
You do not have to hire an attorney to represent you at trial; however, it may be a good idea for you to consult an attorney as soon as possible to learn how to present your case at trial. Your local court or voluntary bar association may offer a free class with information about the small claims process.
