What is Civil Litigation?
Civil litigation refers to a lawsuit or dispute that is handled by the courts. Generally, these types of lawsuits are not criminal proceedings; rather, they involve individuals or businesses that come in conflict with one another. Parties in a civil litigation suit may seek financial or other forms of compensation because they feel they have been grievously wronged. If arbitration and mediation are not successful, these parties can address their grievances in a courtroom before a judge or jury.
