When Should You Hire a Civil Litigation Lawyer?
Civil litigation is a legal process that helps individuals right a wrong in their life that is not criminal in nature. As it is not dealt with by the police, it falls on the courts to resolve these types of disputes. They cover a huge range of scenarios, but common civil litigation cases tend to involve:
- Landlords and tenants
- Business owners and partners
- Homeowners and contractors
- Neighbours
- Relatives
- Employers and staff
There are many more instances where civil litigation is the only legal way to resolve an issue, and it is vital that you have a trusted professional on your side. From understanding the nuances of the courtroom to filing documentation at the right time, civil litigation can be a complex issue to navigate.
How Does Civil Litigation Work?
Before entering a courtroom, we strongly advise a final attempt at dispute resolution without court intervention. From offering arbitration services to a roundtable-style of negotiation, there are many ways to avoid the costs associated with the court if you can resolve your dispute before proceeding with litigation. If this is not an option, then we will move onto court proceedings.
Once court proceedings for civil litigation commence, there will be several areas that need to be covered such as the discovery phase and testimony of any witnesses or third parties involved. Along with this, there will be lots of documentation that needs to be compiled in order to move the case forward. This will vary depending on the type of civil litigation, so we highly recommend using legal counsel to help with this.
The final stage is appearances in the courtroom for civil litigation. To give your case the best possible chance, our team of experts can help by representing you every step of the way. Our goal is to make the legal process as streamlined and effective for you as possible, saving you stress and money along the way.
