What is Civil Litigation?
Civil litigation is the legal process used to resolve disputes between individuals, businesses, or other entities. Unlike criminal law, which involves prosecuting crimes against society, civil litigation focuses on private rights and remedies.
When Do You Need a Civil Litigation Attorney?
You may need the help of a civil litigation attorney if you are involved in a legal dispute, such as:
- Contract Disputes: When a contract is breached or not fulfilled.
- Personal Injury: If you have been injured due to someone else’s negligence.
- Property Disputes: Involving property ownership, boundaries, or damages.
- Business Disputes: Between businesses, partners, or shareholders.
