Dane County Bar Association Small Claims Assistance Program
The volunteers of the Dane County Bar Association Small Claims Assistance Program (SCAP) are here to help you. SCAP offers assistance with all small claims issues, including:
- landlord / tenant
- contract disputes
- wage claims
- enforcement of small claims judgments
SCAP can help you start a small claims case or with a case that is already started. They provide assistance to both plaintiffs and defendants in all small claims actions.
SCAP volunteers can help you fill out the small claims forms and answer questions about small claims court procedures. The volunteers can provide legal information that can help organize and prepare you to handle your Small Claims case as smoothly as possible. Volunteers can give brief and limited legal advice during your time at the clinic. Attorneys cannot recommend a specific lawyer to you.
The volunteers can also guide you to community or other legal resources that might be helpful.
Remember: The Small Claims Assistance Program is intended for people without attorneys.
