How much money is involved in small claims court in Colorado?

In Colorado, the maximum amount you can sue for in small claims court is $7,500. Small claims court is a division of County Court. If your claim is between $7,500 and $15,000, the case would likely still be filed in County Court, but not in the small claims division. If your claim is above $15,000, then the claim probably belongs in District Court. Small claims cases cannot be filed in Municipal Court. In Colorado, each county has at least one County and District Court location. Probably a trip to your local county courthouse (NOT municipal court) will help you decide how to file your case. For more information on small claims cases, you can consult the Colorado Small Claims Guide related link, as well as the Colorado Small Claims Local Rules related link, which contain county-specific information on filing a small claims case.
