Civil Litigation
​
Civil litigation is a non-criminal legal process where two or more parties dispute a claim to resolve it through the court system, typically seeking monetary damages or a specific court order to correct harm or enforce rights. It encompasses various legal areas, including personal injury, contract disputes, property issues, and employment matters. The process involves stages like filing a complaint, discovery, and trial, with cases often settling before a final judgment.
