Our client contracted to have various projects done on her home. The contractor failed to provide a new furnace as per the contract and to perform other tasks as promised. I reviewed the contract and explained that she is still within the statute of limitations to bring a cause of action against the contractor for breach of contract. If damages exceed $5,000, then she will need to file her claim in Circuit Court. However, if her damages are less than $5,000 she may file in the Magistrate Court without the assistance of a lawyer. Explained to the client how to bring a claim for damages under a breach of contract theory in Magistrate Court.
