Civil litigation is a broad legal term that can involve a wide range of disputes between entities, businesses, corporations or individuals. These cases involve legal action taken by one party (the plaintiff) against another (the defendant) to resolve a conflict. Plaintiffs seek specific remedies for harm suffered, including financial compensation. 

Civil litigation is different from criminal law, which involves the prosecution of individuals accused of breaking the law. It also differs from complex litigation, which involves intricate legal issues, multiple parties and multiple jurisdictions.

Disputes in civil litigation cases can include, but are not limited to:

• Anti-trust litigation
• Contract disputes
• Employment claims
• Family law matters
• Landlord/tenant disputes
• Medical malpractice
• Personal injury
• Product liability
• Property and real estate disputes

Civil litigation cases take a multistep legal process, beginning with the filing of a complaint by the plaintiff against the defendant. The next step is discovery when both parties share documents and evidence related to the case. Pre-trial negotiations follow, during which our attorneys work diligently to negotiate a favorable settlement before proceeding to trial.
