Broward County Civil Litigation Lawyer

Civil litigation is the legal process for resolving disputes between individuals, businesses, and organizations outside the criminal justice system. Unlike criminal cases, which seek punishment for wrongdoing, civil cases focus on resolving disputes and providing compensation when harm has been caused.

What Types of Disputes Does Civil Litigation Cover?

A wide range of issues can fall under the umbrella of civil litigation, including:

Breach of contract: When one party fails to uphold their obligations under an agreement.
Personal injury: Seeking compensation for damages caused by accidents, negligence, or medical malpractice.
Property disputes: Issues related to ownership, boundaries, or damage to property.
Business disputes: Contract disputes, shareholder disagreements, intellectual property infringement, and more.
Employment disputes: Wrongful termination, discrimination, and contract violations.
Estate and trust disputes: Wills, inheritance, and trust administration issues.

How Does Civil Litigation Work?

The civil litigation process can be complex, but typically involves these key steps:

Consultation: Discussing your case with a lawyer to understand your options and legal rights.
Complaint: Filing a formal complaint outlining your claims against the other party.
Discovery: Exchanging information and evidence between both parties.
Negotiation: Attempting to reach a settlement outside of court.
Trial: Presenting your case before a judge or jury who will decide the outcome.
Judgment and Appeal: Receiving a decision and potentially appealing if necessary.
