All You Need To Know About Civil Litigation and Commercial Litigation

Litigation is the process of taking legal action and filing a lawsuit. Now, depending on the type of complaint, it is either a civil court case or a commercial one. Once you decide to litigate, you have to gather around your defenses to fight your case. The party that files the complaint and seeks legal remedy is called the plaintiff or the complainant, and the person/company against whom the lawsuit is filed is called the defendant. Both parties need lawyers to represent them in court unless they decide to represent themselves.

The litigation lawyers are involved in cases involving conflict between individuals, disputes involving private law, and government (state) vs private individual cases. At times, the civil lawsuits do not end up in the courts as an efficient lawyer is able to come to a negotiation settlement outside the court. 

If you own a business and are involved in its affairs, then any conflict arising during the course of business will involve commercial litigation. Mostly this pertains to financial, property, and contractual problems that can be fought in court or negotiated in an out of court settlement. Whichever way you choose, you must have full information about all the implications and must seek professional help if the need appears.
