Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.
contract has unconscionable terms. I've been dealing with this for about 14 months now and the situation isn't improving.
The contract was signed 10 months ago. I am not sure I have the original signed copy. The total amount in dispute is approximately $108,000.
Should I hire a lawyer for this or try to handle it myself?
NAL, but from what I've read, you should check your state's specific laws. But honestly you should verify this with someone who knows your state's laws.
Update: filed in small claims court last week. Total cost was $75 filing fee + $20 for service by the sheriff. Small claims is designed for self-representation, but attorney review can help where facts, damages, documentation, or statutory penalties are disputed. The defendant (a major corporation) has to send a representative to appear in person. Most of the time they'd rather settle than send someone to small claims court over a few thousand dollars.
