Civil Litigation is the broadest of legal categories; consequently, it is simply impossible to list every type of case that falls under this heading. However, some of the more common types of cases include: vehicle related accidents, contract disputes, and real estate related issues (including landlord/tenant disputes). Civil litigation often involves the filing of a lawsuit; however, cases can be resolved by pre-trial negotiations. The remedy sought in civil litigation is usually limited to monetary compensation for the wrongful act of the other party. However, civil litigation can also involve cases where the remedy sought is a judge’s order requiring a party to take or refrain from taking some action.
