| Florida's small claims court system provides a useful procedure for collecting debts that may be too small to warrant the hiring of an attorney, but too big to ignore. The new edition of How to Win in Small Claims Court in Florida addresses changes to the small claims rules. Recently, there seems to be a broad interpretation of the rules whereby Florida judges determine how much information to give to the parties in small claims court depending on if they are represented by an attorney or not. While it is unclear what the effect this ruling will have on the claimant's rights, it is very clear that this information must be understood and solid preparation made before entering the claims court. An expanded glossary, small claims checklists and a thorough index, plus blank, easy-to-use forms make this title an indispensable tool for preparing to go to small claims court.
