Is a small claim worth instructing a barrister for?
Not always. A District Court can hear small claims up to Rs 100,000 lodged by litigants themselves. Whether that route fits your dispute depends on your facts.

local instructions
Acting for clients in Quatre Bornes
Quatre Bornes produces family, employment, contract and tenancy questions. Written records matter where each side remembers an agreement or meeting differently.
Family arrangements must work around children and employment while proceedings continue. A negotiated position may help, but its value depends on the evidence and terms.
Tenancy and neighbour disputes should be set out in writing early. If settlement fails, the lease, deposit, boundary and correspondence form the working file.
Which court hears a Quatre Bornes matter
There is no District Court bearing the name of the town. Quatre Bornes lies in the district of Plaines Wilhems, which is served by two District Courts — Lower Plaines Wilhems, sitting at Rose-Hill, and Upper Plaines Wilhems, sitting at Curepipe. We identify the correct one for your matter before filing. A District Court can also deal with small claims of up to Rs 100,000 brought by litigants themselves in a summary and expeditious way, which is worth knowing before paying anyone to run a small dispute.
