WHAT IS CIVIL LITIGATION?
Most people think of the courtroom when they hear the word litigation but civil litigation can also include mediation and arbitration. Civil litigation is an all-encompassing term that refers to a legal dispute between two or more parties that seeks one or more civil remedies including, but not limited to, monetary damages, specific performance, the return of property, injunctions, and temporary restraining orders.
Civil litigation is not a criminal matter and does not include criminal sanctions although a crime may have been committed in a civil wrong. For example, an at-fault driver may have committed a crime (running a red light, speeding, etc.) that ultimately resulted in a motor vehicle crash but the determination of liability against the at-fault driver will be determined based on the civil standard of negligence.
We understand that each legal matter is unique and individual to the client. When you meet with one of our civil litigation attorneys, they’ll listen to your goals and work with you to develop a plan of action. The litigation process can be long and arduous and we will be there for you every step of the way. Knowing that novel thinking and attention to detail are at the heart of any legal victory, we carefully investigate each case and approach our analysis of factual and legal issues from every angle. This thorough and aggressive approach produces results and ensures the best representation for our clients.
