CIVIL LITIGATION
Home > Practice Areas > Civil Litigation
Litigation is the process of a case that needs to go to court. An attorney advocates for your rights and speaks in front of a judge or jury. Civil litigation is a dispute between 2 or more people, as opposed to criminal law where the case is between the state and the perpetrator. Civil litigation covers everything from a breach of contract case to a landlord/tenant dispute or a disagreement between two neighbors over a property boundary line. Living in a community will always have some disagreements, but sometimes it’s necessary to involve an attorney and fight for your rights.
