Making a claim is when you begin formal legal action against the other party. You make a claim after you have tried the other methods to recover money you believe is owed to you but haven't been successful. The claim is firstly lodged with the court and then served on the other party. From now on, you are known as the 'plaintiff' and the other party is the 'defendant.'

A lawsuit where one party is suing another party. Neither party can face jail time, fines, or criminal charges as a result of the lawsuit itself (except in cases of a party's contempt, which would occur during the litigation). Parties can include individuals, businesses, and government entities.
