Civil & Commercial Litigation

Civil litigation refers to the legal process in which individuals, businesses, or other entities resolve disputes through the court system. Unlike criminal cases, where the state prosecutes individuals for violating laws, civil litigation involves private parties seeking legal remedies or compensation for perceived wrongs. These disputes can encompass a wide range of issues, including contractual disputes, personal injury claims, property disputes, family law matters, and more.

​

It's important to note that civil litigation can be time-consuming and expensive. Many cases are resolved through settlements before reaching trial, as parties often find it more efficient and cost-effective to negotiate an agreement rather than go through the entire court process. Legal representation is common in civil litigation to ensure that parties' rights are protected, their arguments are presented effectively, and they understand their legal options.
