Re: Small Claims Statue

Statutes of limitation are different, depending on the subject matter of the lawsuit, not whether the claim is large or small. To find out the particular statute of limitations for your particular scenario, you need to contact an Alabama attorney for that. Given where you are, I recommend that you contact Mobile Attorney Russell Bergstrom at [email protected]. Best of luck.
