Colorado small claims court is designed for self-representation, and attorneys generally may not appear except in limited roles (for example, a party who is an attorney, or a qualifying full-time employee or officer of a business that is a party). Colo. Rev. Stat. 13-6-407 and the court's own summons form (JDF 250) provide that a party who wants attorney representation files a Notice of Representation of Attorney (JDF 256) at least 7 days before the trial date, after which the other side may also be represented by counsel.
Where a party is under 18, the court appoints a guardian to act.
Over the limit? Either bring the figure down to the maximum and remain in small claims, or file the whole amount in the regular civil court. The amount given up is usually gone for good.

Filing is only half of it. The defendant has to receive formal notice, a step called service of process, and in most cases you cannot hand over the papers yourself. In Colorado, courts typically use delivery arranged by the court, email service where the court allows it, personal delivery by an approved server or the sheriff or constable.
Courts accept service by a sheriff or constable, a professional server, the clerk via certified mail, or an adult who is not party to the case. Permitted methods and charges change by county.
Each court sets how far before the hearing the defendant must be served. The clerk confirms your deadline when the hearing date is set. Service within 15 days of hearing. Proof of service any time before hearing.
Service is proved on paper. The server completes and signs a form, and it is filed before the matter is heard.
