What is Civil Litigation? |
|
| Civil Litigation refers to the area of the legal practice that involves a lawsuit in civil court (not criminal court) between at least
two parties, in which one party is seeking money damages or specific performance from the other party.
Civil Litigation can be resolved through settlement, mediation, arbitration, or a trial.
There are as many areas of Civil Litigation as there are things people can fight over. We have provided in these pages further information
relating to the most common areas of Civil Litigation. To learn more go directly to the following pages: |
