Introduction
Expedited Forms LLC dba Small Claims Aid provides a streamlined case filing service to help users navigate the small claims process. Our role is to prepare and file your documents based on the information you provide. We also offer optional services like process serving. Please note, Expedited Forms LLC dba Small Claims Aid does not offer legal advice or legal representation and cannot guarantee the outcome of your case in court.
We work hard to ensure all filings and process serving follow the relevant rules, but there may be instances where service attempts fail due to issues such as incorrect addresses or defendants evading service. While we cannot guarantee successful service of process, we will employ experienced third-party process servers or county sheriffs to carry out the attempts.
By using our service, you appoint Expedited Forms LLC dba Small Claims Aid as your authorized agent to handle the filing of your claim and arrange service of process as required.
Refund Policy: Due to the nature of our services, once the filing process has begun, our services are non-refundable. This includes situations where service of process is unsuccessful. We incur costs with third parties, such as sheriffs or process servers, that cannot be refunded.
