10 THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT
BEFORE YOU SUE
THERE ARE LOTS OF DIFFERENT
THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD
BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT
AGAINST A PERSON OR BUSINESS,
INCLUDING:
WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE
A GOOD CASE. IT IS CRUCIAL THAT
YOU DETERMINE IF YOU ARE
LIKELY TO WIN YOUR LAWSUIT.
WHAT YOUR FINAL DEMAND
WITH REGARDS TO YOUR
LAWSUIT IS GOING TO BE.
WHETHER OR NOT
IT IS POSSIBLE TO SETTLE
THE LAWSUIT WITH
A SIMPLE COMPROMISE.
WILL IT BE POSSIBLE
TO COLLECT A JUDGMENT
SHOULD YOU WIN?
CAN YOU AFFORD TO HIRE A
LAWYER FOR YOUR LAWSUIT?
CAN YOU AFFORD TO SPEND
THE NECESSARY TIME
AND RESOURCES ON
YOUR LAWSUIT?
ARE YOU WITHIN THE
STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS
FOR YOUR LAWSUIT?
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU
MAKE SURE YOU HAVEN'T
ALREADY RUN OUT
OF TIME TO FILE IT.
WHERE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO SUE.
IF YOU'RE SUING SOMEONE
FROM A DIFFERENT STATE,
YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUE
THEM IN A COURT LOCATED IN
THE STATE YOU LIVE IN.
CAN YOUR CLAIM BE BROUGHT
TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT?
THIS WILL DEPEND ON THE SIZE
AND NATURE OF YOUR LAWSUIT.
IF YOU PLAN ON BRINGING YOUR
CASE TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT,
ARE YOU GOING TO
REPRESENT YOURSELF?
