Frequently asked questions
How much can I sue for in Wyoming if the letter is ignored?
$6,000 exclusive of costs (Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-201). Small claims is a simplified docket within Circuit Court, which separately hears ordinary civil actions up to $50,000 — so claims over $6,000 can still stay in Circuit Court under regular procedure. The Department of Revenue may consolidate tax-collection claims against a single taxpayer subject to the same dollar limit. The court is the Circuit Court (small claims docket). Filing fee: $10 flat filing fee for small claims under Wyo. Stat. § 5-9-135 (regular circuit court civil filings pay $70: $20 filing + $40 automation + $10 indigent legal services; small claims are expressly exempted).. As of 2026; source: Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-201.
Do I need a lawyer in Wyoming small claims?
Attorneys are Yes — allowed; if one side appears with an attorney, the opposing party is entitled to a continuance to obtain their own counsel (Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-202(b)).. That matters before you send the letter: where lawyers are barred, the person reading your letter knows they will be arguing it themselves, which is part of why demand letters get paid. Source: Wyo. Stat. § 1-21-201 (as of 2026).
Can I demand more than $6,000?
Yes — a demand letter has no cap; only courts do. If you are owed more than $6,000, the letter is the same and the follow-through would be Wyoming's regular civil docket instead of the Circuit Court (small claims docket).
