I live in Virginia and I have to take a nation wide corporation to small claims. I have identified the company name they use in my region and the name/address of their registered agent. However, that registered agent is a corporation that specializes in being the registered agent for other corporations.

I'm trying to fill out the Warrant in Debt and I'm not sure what to put in the defendant section. Do I put the company name as defendant and then the registered agent's info on the back for the person that needs to be served?

I'm also a little confused with the Claim/Cost section. I'm suing over improper billing over a long period of time and want to recover the amount billed with interest. I'm also throwing in court fees, and entertaining the idea of some punitive damages since I was rather poorly treated in my attempts to resolve this outside of court. I assume I would put the billed amount, interest, and punitive amounts in the claim section and then the court fees in the costs section, but I'm not 100% on that. Then there is the claim type selection; I don't know if this is an Open Account, Contract, or Other (I'm fairly positive it is not a Note).

Homestead exemption? It just so happens that I live very close to the court district that contains the registered agent, so I'm filing there to avoid any foolery with the venue. I assume Homestead exemption doesn't apply here, whatever it is.

Any guidance would be appreciated.
