What does small claims involve?
- Simplified procedures: Small claims use a streamlined court process with less formality and reduced paperwork compared to standard litigation.
- Lower monetary thresholds: Designed for disputes involving relatively low financial amounts, generally up to £10,000 in England and Wales.
- Pre-action protocols: Emphasizing early negotiation and resolution through letters before action to avoid unnecessary court proceedings.
- Wide range of issues: Covering consumer disputes, contract breaches, minor property disagreements, and personal injury claims where the sums involved are limited.
- Quick resolution: The small claims track is structured to resolve disputes more rapidly, reducing both the time and expense for all parties involved.
How can a solicitor help with small claims, and what does it cost?
- Provide expert legal advice: Evaluating your case to determine its merits and advising on the best strategy for a successful outcome.
- Draft and file documentation: Preparing claim forms, witness statements, and other necessary paperwork in compliance with small claims court procedures.
- Negotiate settlements: Assisting in early negotiations or mediation to settle the dispute outside of court, if possible.
- Represent you in court: Offering representation during hearings to ensure your interests are clearly presented and defended.
- Cost-effective strategies: Many solicitors offer fixed-fee packages for small claims cases, or charge hourly rates typically ranging from £150 to £400, making it easier to budget for your legal expenses.
Costs for small claims vary based on the complexity of your dispute and the solicitor’s expertise. An initial consultation—often free or available at a reduced rate—will help you understand your legal position, explore settlement options, and obtain a clear estimate of the expenses involved in pursuing your claim.
