General civil Litigation

Civil law generally involves interaction between individuals or groups regarding the conduct of human affairs that are not punished by the government. Matters that involve disputes between private parties such as negligence, defamation, nuisance, breach of contract, real property titles, or that involve life planning such as preparing the disposition of property upon death, organizing a corporation or limited liability company, or probating the estate of a deceased loved one, all fall within the civil areas of law.
These cases generally deal with whether or not someone will pay money to someone else or not. Because our legal system encourages parties to settle outside of the courtroom, they are most often resolved with mediation.
