Common Questions
Small claims questions Oshawa clients often ask.
Can an Oshawa repair dispute go to Small Claims Court?
It may be possible if the amount is within the court's limit and the documents support the claim or defence.
What if the invoice includes work I did not approve?
Scope, approval messages, work orders, payment records, and any complaint history should be reviewed.
Can I defend part of a claim and admit the rest?
A defence can address parts of a claim differently, but deadlines and wording should be handled carefully.
