Go to the court house in the county where you live and/or the county where the action occurred.

Ask the clerk, "What do I need to do to file a small claims suit?"

Follow her/his instructions.

Also, if you look online, you'll find information about small claim suits in your county. Google "how to file small claims suit" along with the city, county, and state name. Then, look for the website that ends with ".gov" and go to it. Stay away from the about.com websites with "how to" instructions as they are often wrong.
