My nephew owes my sister £805, I won't bore you with the whole story but he's owed it her since last June and obviously has no intention of paying her back. Inevitably, they've now had a huge fallout and my sister thinks the Small Claims Court is her only hope of getting the money back. She has proof that he had the money (bank transfer)
She's worried that a) it might cost her too much to 'bring' the case, and b) even if she did win (surely she would?) he'll just refuse to pay and she won't get it back anyway
I wouldn't have thought b) could happen because everyone could do that, then there wouldn't be any point in the process existing in the first place
I'd really appreciate some pointers for her

Please could someone explain how the Small Claims Court works?
