Civil Litigation
Civil Litigation in California
Civil litigation is a legal process used to resolve disputes between individuals, businesses, or other entities. Unlike criminal cases, civil litigation involves conflicts over rights, responsibilities, and liabilities, with the goal of securing compensation or enforcing obligations rather than punishing wrongdoing. If you’re involved in a civil dispute in California, understanding your legal rights is essential to protecting your interests.
What is Civil Litigation?
Civil litigation encompasses a wide variety of legal disputes, including those involving contracts, property, personal injury, and other areas of contention. The California Code of Civil Procedure, Evidence Code, and their federal counterparts, alongside the California Civil Code, work together to establish a comprehensive framework for addressing and resolving these disputes in a manner that is both fair and just. This framework ensures that all parties involved have a clear understanding of their rights and responsibilities, promoting equitable outcomes in the legal process.
Here are some common types of civil litigation cases:
- Contract Disputes: Disagreements involving the terms, enforcement, or breach of a contract.
- Personal Injury: Cases involving injuries caused by negligence, such as car accidents, slips and falls, and medical malpractice.
- Business Litigation: Conflicts between businesses or within a business, including partnership disputes, and fraud.
- Landlord-Tenant Disputes: Issues such as eviction, rent disputes, or lease agreement conflicts.
- Consumer Fraud: Claims involving deceptive business practices, misleading advertisements, or violations of consumer rights.
- Defamation: Legal actions arising from false statements that damage someone’s reputation.
