Re: Suing Small Claims out of State
Your best bet would be to file your case in the county where the defendant resides, this being Kings County (Brooklyn)...we would be happy to accommodate you for a reasonable charge however, we would need some more information before making a complete and proper determination. You are welcome to contact us for a free consultation.
