Exceptions and details
Limit is $15,000 for claims arising from home improvement contracts (by a registered contractor) or new home construction contracts (C.G.S. § 51-15(d)). A tenant suing to recover a wrongfully withheld security deposit may be awarded twice the deposit even if the total exceeds $5,000. Libel and slander actions cannot be brought in small claims.

Connecticut has no mandatory state bar. The voluntary statewide Connecticut Bar Association does not operate its own LRS; its public help page lists the county bar LRSs (Hartford County, New Haven County, New London County). CBA also offers 'Find a Lawyer CT', a member directory, not a referral service.
