Where should I file my case?

A claim that is against an individual should be filed in the County of the person’s legal residence. When a claim is against a business, the type of business determines where the claim should be filed. If the business is a sole proprietorship, the suit should be filed in the county in which the owner of the business resides. For a partnership, the suit should be filed in the county in which at least one of the owners resides. For a corporation, the suit should be filed in the county where the corporation is doing business or in the county that has designated its registered agent for service with the Secretary of State’s office. If the suit is against multiple defendants who live in different counties, you can file in either one of the counties that they reside in.
