[QUOTE="Dale00, post: 3722553, member: 688"] Perhaps you've had some adventures in pursuing a claim in small claims court.....Here's mine This is a word of warning....Here is something crazy that our family was blindsided by recently. Although you are told that you can pursue claims of up to $10,000 without having to hire an attorney, there is a major trap in the process. If your claim is more than $7,500 the defendant can simply petition to have the case transferred to the circuit court and it will be transferred. Circuit court proceedings are considerably more complicated making a lawyer advisable....and impractical due to the small dollars involved. This $7500 limit makes no sense at all...running completely contrary to the reason small claims courts exist. Thanks so much to our incompetent Oklahoma legislature for not doing your due diligence when you raised the small claims court claim limit to $10,000. [/QUOTE]
