Ontario: Small Claims Court Claims Limit now up to $25,000

Effective January 1, 2010, the jurisdiction of the Small Claims Court in Ontario has risen to $25,000, exclusive of costs and interest. Prior to 2010, only claims for $10,000 could be brought in the Small Claims Court, which offers a more streamlined and less expensive court process than the Superior Court.
