Civil Litigation Attorney in Torrance CA

Civil litigation is the process of resolving non-criminal matters between two or more parties in a court of law. A civil lawsuit aims to resolves disputes between people, business, or other entities—including government entities—through a series of distinct proceedings which may involve the filing of a lawsuit in state or federal court, or the pursuit of legal claims through arbitration. The civil litigation process involves the preparation of mandatory court pleadings, the conducting of discovery such as taking depositions, and the handling of a client’s case through trial or arbitration. Appeals and negotiation of settlements are also part of the civil litigation process.
