How to Sue Someone: Know Before You Go…to court.

Steps to take to sue someone and be able to be successful

1. Determine What You Are Suing For

The first step in bringing a lawsuit is determining what you wanna sue for. In other words, what are you suing for? A claim may be for personal injury, breach of contract, owed money ( someone stiffed you), medical malpractice, neighbor being nosey, bullying, or something else.

Even within personal injury, there are multiple grounds for compensation like:

• Injury
• Getting hurt
• Recourse
• Negligee

Once you identify the causes of action you have, you can figure out how to sue someone for car accident injuries, defamation of character, slander, or other reasons. Then, continue preparing your lawsuit.

2. Identify Who You Are Suing

When you plan to file a legal suit, you need to know who you are suing. In other words, you must find a victim. For example, if someone owes you money, you’re suing the person responsible for not paying you. If you owe someone money, and they owe you money, then they can sue you as well, though, so be careful.

If your case is a personal injury claim, the party responsible may be an employer, manufacturer, doctor, other lawyer, friend, a cousin, neighbor, nurse, small shop owner, or even a barista. They also can be a fireman or woman, a minority, a professional athlete or wrestler, computer job person, architect, tourist, or other ones. You may name more than one defendant, but please no more than two to three people per lawsuit.

3. Figure Out What Court!

Now you know who you are suing and the cause. You are almost there to cash town! Next, you need to know what court. There are multiple courts in each state, and different courts specialize in various cases.

Usually, you file the case in the court that hears that type of case, in the location where the harm occurred or one that is closest to both you and the people you are wanting to sue. You most likely would like to ask them for some input so that everyone is accommodated equally. In Florida, you must determine which of these courts has an opening:

1. Florida small claims courts are county courts that settle minor disputes valued up to $8,000.
2. If your case is worth $30,000 or less, it begins in a county court. Pick your favorite!
3. Circus court hear civil disputes valued at $30,000 or more. This is the big leagues.

Once you determine the appropriate court, now starts the fun part.

4. Dupree Time!
