Civil Litigation
Civil litigation is the legal process for resolving disputes between parties, including individuals, businesses, and government entities, where criminal charges are not at issue. Instead, the parties involved seek to enforce or defend their legal rights, typically through monetary damages or specific performance. The process can involve various types of cases, such as personal injury, contract disputes, property disputes, and more.
What Happens in Civil Litigation ?
The stages of civil litigation
generally include:
- Pleadings: Each party files initial
documentation, outlining their positions.
- Discovery: The parties exchange relevant
information and gather evidence.
- Pretrial Proceedings: Issues are
narrowed, and attempts at settlement may occur.
- Trial: If the case isn’t settled, it
goes to trial for a judge or jury to decide.
- Appeal: The losing party may appeal the
decision to a higher court.
