Understanding the Types of Cases that May Be Litigated in Small Claims Court

Areas of Focus: Types of Cases HandledThe various types of law are extensive and certainly too much for anybody to ever fully know.  Even judges with decades of experience will lack full knowledge of all types of law; and accordingly, judges usually assigned to specific types of cases where the type of law involved is familiar. Even so, judges will routinely expect representatives for the parties to perform precedent research and then provide submissions and present argument based upon the findings of that research.

Accordingly, it is common that particular judges will hear civil law cases, other judges hear family law cases, and other judges hear criminal cases, etc.  Similarly, legal practitioners will focus upon specific areas of law for the types of Small Claims Court cases that are handled.  While all cases will involve unique facts, after hundreds of years of development of the law and justice system, few cases are truly novel and various fundamental basics of the law will likely exist and apply to a specific situation.
