Appellate Practice Attorney serving New York, NY
I don't think it is worth hiring an attorney over $400, but if you are a corporation or other business entity you may have no choice. Corporations, llc's, and some others are legal entities which can only be represented by attorneys. Individuals can represent themselves, but not anyone or anything else. However, in some small claims courts, a shareholder is allowed to represent his corporation. I do not know if the small claims court in your jurisdiction is one of these.
