General and Civil Litigation

Civil lawsuits, on the other hand, are typically between individuals and other individuals, or
their business entities (corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, etc.). There are
occasions, however when the commission of a crime can also involve a civil wrongful act.

Civil litigation covers a wide range of legal matters, and can involve anyone, irrespective of
age or financial condition. If you need to assert your rights against someone or something that
has taken advantage of you or violated your rights, you may need to sue. In this case, you are a
plaintiff. If, however, someone claims that you have in some way violated his or her rights, you
may get sued. In this case, you are a defendant. Either way, the civil litigation process can be
daunting, cumbersome, time consuming and exhausting.

Sometimes, civil disputes can be resolved informally, and prior to any court intervention. Even
before a lawsuit is filed, a good, experienced attorney can help encourage and secure settlement.
This process, sometimes referred to as alternative dispute resolution (ADR), can be through
mediation, arbitration (binding or non-binding), or just good, aggressive negotiations with the
parties or their insurance representatives. A good, experienced lawyer should only have his or her
clients’ best interest in mind, which could mean working hard to find and create innovative
solutions in order to avoid litigation.

Sometimes, however, litigation is inevitable. The ability to resolve a civil conflict may only be
as possible as the intentions of the other side. When all else fails, a lawsuit may need to be filed,
or defended, as the case may be.
