Pursue a claim for $3K or less in commissions in small claims court
You can pursue a claim for unpaid commissions in small claims court if the claim is for $3,000 or less. It only costs about $75 to file and you do not need an attorney.
If your claim is for more than $3,000, you can waive the amount in excess of $3K and still go to small claims, or you can go to the regular division of the Municipal Court (that is, not the small claims division). Once you get into the regular division of the court, however, the process starts getting complicated and you may want to consider hiring an attorney to assist you.
