Need some advice on suing someone in Small Claim Tribunal

[cseir]

Hi all,

Wanna have some advice/sharing of past experience regarding suing someone in Small Claim Tribunal for a non-payment case.

1. There's no written agreement/contract being signed between me & the other party (my friend), so can Whatsapp message be used as evidence in the Small Claim Tribunal?

2. If Whatsapp messages can be used, then I should claim against my friend? I'm now claiming against the company (my friend is one of the directors), coz I've helped them complete a renovation project but after that, they refused to pay me.

3. I've attended the 1st consultation today at the SCT, I think maybe I'm claiming the wrong party? Coz the judge keeps asking me, you are claiming against the company or your friend?

Thank you so much.
