What is Civil Litigation?
Civil litigation refers to the legal process where individuals or entities seek to resolve disputes through the court system. Unlike criminal cases, civil litigation involves private parties seeking compensation or specific performance rather than criminal penalties. Common areas of civil litigation include:
Property Disputes: Issues related to ownership, boundaries, and property rights.
Contract Disputes: Conflicts arising from the interpretation or enforcement of contracts.
Family Matters: Legal issues such as divorce, child custody, and support.
