Re: small claims court.
I've never used it in Florida. I have twice in another state. I won and collected. The collection is the hard part. In Florida the cost seems to be a percentage of the amount sued for. If, they insure that you collect it might make sense. Typically if your win a case in small claims few are able to collect.

Truth, when I did it, it was amusing. It was at night and so I did not lose time from work
and you get stuck there till your case comes up. The other cases were like watching the peoples court.

Be sure to read a book or two on how to do it. If, you are forced to go to small claims, the goal is to WIN not to be nice-it has already gone past that point.
