Civil litigation is the process of resolving legal disputes between two or more parties. It covers a wide range of legal issues, from breaches of contract and property disputes to personal injury claims and business conflicts. In a civil case, one party (the plaintiff) brings a claim against another party (the defendant), seeking financial compensation or some other remedy.
When you’re involved in a legal dispute, you have several options for resolving the conflict. Litigation is one path where you file a lawsuit and have a judge or jury decide the outcome. However, many disputes can be resolved outside of court through alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods like mediation or arbitration.
In mediation, a neutral third party helps you and the other side work toward a mutually agreeable solution. In arbitration, a neutral third party hears both sides and makes a binding decision. At our firm, we’ll work with you to explore all your options and choose the approach that best fits your needs.
The most crucial consideration when selecting a business structure is whether limited liability protection is something you require, as this is the main feature of such a structure. Informal company arrangements like sole proprietorships and general partnerships are usually sufficient for companies with low risk and a small customer base.
Attorneys ensure that all paperwork is prepared correctly and submitted to the appropriate authorities. Attorneys conduct title searches, can negotiate should a search turn up an issue, and, if a problem is found, can advise you on the best course of action.
