[Browse the store](/toolkits) Who it is for People and small businesses with a money claim in Georgia that may fit under $15,000, and people who have been sued there and want the same organized record. You may file in your own name without an attorney or hire one. Not the right fit if Your claim is outside Georgia, over its small claims limit, or needs a lawyer (an injury, a dispute over land, a family case). Not a form preparation or legal service. Why it is different - Built only from our Georgia small claims data file, checked November 2026 against Georgia Department of Law, Consumer Protection Division: Other options for resolving your dispute; Fulton County Magistrate Court: Small Claims ("you may electronically file a case in Magistrate court"). - All 9 Georgia facts in the kit are confirmed on an official page. - Official forms are linked, not copied, so you always file the court's current version. What is inside - **Start here and is small claims right?.** How to use the kit, the 9 confirmed Georgia facts at a glance and a yes/no checklist: is the amount under $15,000, is it the right court, is there someone to serve and something to collect from. - **Georgia filing guide.** Where and how to file, from the official pages: Individual defendant: the county where they live. Corporation: the county of its registered agent. Unincorporated business: the county where it is physically located. Fees: filing fee with serving one defendant, low end: $45 (varies by county); filing fee with serving one defendant, high end: $55 (varies by county).
