I posted an entry last week about small claims court. Small claims offers people access to justice at a relatively small cost. Within a few months you can be in front of a judge.

This is for a mandatory settlement conference. A small claims court settlement conference involves the attendance of all parties within the lawsuit. You can attend alone or with your lawyer.

The intent of the conference is to resolve any outstanding disputes and to try and settle the matter. In addition, they can also provide a party with a better understanding of what a judge at trial might think about their case.

Many small claims disputes are settled at settlement conferences.

If you require assistance in the area of small claims court, call Rehan Khalil a lawyer.
