Unfortunately, the process of filing a small claims lawsuit varies between states and counties. Some states don't allow attorneys, while some states or counties do.

You should check your state's provisions before filing KIA warranty complaints claim. If your state allows representation, you may need to hire a lawyer. Hiring an attorney complicates the process and could saddle you with an expensive bill.
