If the claim  is under $7,500 you may file in conciliation court which is Minnesota's version of small claims court.  to do so, you must go to the COurt Administrator's Office, ideally in the county where the client resides, and acquire a Cociliatin Court Complaint.  It is of the fill in the blank varriety and self explanatory.

It is served on the other party and a date for court is immediately set.
