Civil litigation is a legal process in which there is no question of criminal charges and penalties. If two or more parties are involved in such a non-criminal legal dispute, the case is brought before a trial in which the plaintiffs seek compensation from the defendants or other damages.
Consult a civil litigation attorney quickly if you’re considering filing a complaint, or if you’ve just been served. As the consequences of a missed deadline is serious and you need to consider your rights and options. An experienced civil litigation lawyer will clarify how much the case is worth—or the amount you might expect to lose—after evaluating your case, and determine your chances of winning. You’ll be ready to decide, armed with that knowledge, whether it’s best to fight, settle, file for bankruptcy or do nothing. Whatever path you take, your chance of success will be increased by getting a professional lawyer on your side. Cris Craft law firm is here to help you.
