How to Sue

Once you have decided to go ahead and file a lawsuit, you will probably need some help figuring out how to get started. Filing a lawsuit is not always a clear and straightforward process, and even basic decisions such as where to sue might not be as simple as they seem. In FindLaw's section on How to Sue, you can find information about how to decide whether to file a lawsuit, whether you need the counsel of an attorney, how to write demand letters prior to a lawsuit, and what to expect in a lawsuit as it progresses from beginning to end.
