Thank you very much Army Judge. I received your reply. Take care. I'll keep you updated.

Hello Army Judge, A company posted blatant lies to defame me on this online forum. My lawyer told me to just remove my post, since he thinks that in a way I provoked them. I'd like to hear your thoughts on this. They posted blatant lies and I can prove them wrong. So, is it really a good idea...

Yes, $9k would work for me. I contacted several lawyers for civil litigation. Two lawyers almost "cheated" me by asking for both contingency fee and hourly rate at the same time. I managed to find and talked to 2 very nice lawyers (cccccc, and dddddd). They both told me that it will take a lot...

Can they try do this: point out that the "amount being disputed" is $14k, and say that they are willing to pay $5k provided that it settles all the dispute? I.e. they don't have to admit that they owe $14k total, they just say "amount being disputed", or "amount claimed by plaintiff". Well, I...

OK, sounds great! I'll send the small claim form and will keep you updated. God bless you Army Judge!!

Thank you very much Army Judge :-) I can see you're helping many people. My kudos to you.

Thanks again Army Judge :-) The company's owner, xxxxxxx, is a millionaire. His apartment alone is worth $1.3 million (you can google his name, and the building name). So collection may not be difficult. I guess they can still declare bankruptcy.... But if they do that, I will make a website...

I was thinking of the same exact thing: just do it. But can the defendant dismiss the claim easily by pointing out that there's more they owe? Or maybe they'll let me sue them, and even win, but during the judgement can they ask the judge to declare that they will pay $5k and get no more...

Hi Army Judge, Thanks again for your time and advice. I just called NY city small claim clerk at 718 618-2518. I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to reach someone right away. I was going to ask whether I can have a say on what dates I'm not available for the trial and whether the...

Hey Army Judge :-) I'm going forward with this. I'm reading about the rules of small claims court. It's a little tricky situation for me, because I reside in northern New York state and the company made me sign a contract that says any dispute must be resolved in NY city. This is the problem...

Army Judge saves the day! Thanks again Army Judge :-) I think you saved me. But I found out something while reading up on small claims. Here's what I found: "Can I sue for more than $5000 in Small Claims Court? No. If your claim is for more than $5000, you must start a civil case. You...

Thank you! Hello Army Judge! Thank you, that's a great news. I'm in NY state, do you think it works here too? (I noticed you're in Texas).

First of all, thank you very much for making such a forum possible. I'm in NY state. A start up company owes me 2 months of payment which totaled more than $5,000. My question is: is it possible to sue them in small claim court for 1 month payment? This way, it will be less than the limit for...
