Litigation involves bringing a dispute to court as a formal method of resolving conflicts that are considered incapable of alternative dispute resolution or where alternative dispute resolution has been unhelpful.
Litigation is typically seen as the final option for settling a disagreement (other possibilities include mediation, arbitration, or simple negotiation) – though in certain instances, going directly to litigation may be suitable. You could end up being the defendant in a lawsuit arising out of a contract dispute, or alleged damage caused by your actions.
You may also want to take legal action against someone for money owed from a breach of contract, or for damages caused by someone’s actions or failure to fulfill obligations. In this situation, you would be the party bringing a lawsuit.
We offer a unique level of experience and expertise in litigated disputes. It is always prudent to act quickly whether you are the one intending to bring a lawsuit or defending a lawsuit brought against you.
