What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? New York
Hello, I would be thankful for some advice on initiating a settlement on a small claims suit. I would like to get some legal advice on my case but considering that this is a very small case (5K), are there any recommendations on attorneys in the NYC area? How much would this cost approximately? If we reach a settlement before going to trial, how would this entire episode appear in an extensive background check in the future (govt jobs, immigration, etc.)? Are there some other things that I should keep in mind while discussing the settlement with the counter party? I would really appreciate some help with this.
Thanks!
