Small Claims Format

Download a copy of the Statement of Claim in .doc format.

This form is useful in cases where the amount involved does not exceed P100,000.00. It is important to note that in small claims cases, a lawyer is not necessary, except when he is the plaintiff or the defendant. In case the plaintiff or defendant cannot personally attend to his case, he cannot be represented by a lawyer. The representative must be related to him or his next of kin.
