CIVIL
LITIGATION
The
process of civil
litigation can be a long
and costly process.
Civil litigation can
involve many issues, and
many topics. I believe
the way of the future
for the legal profession
in civil litigation is
to challenge these high
costs, and try to find
other methods to resolve
the majority of the
issues involved in
today's civil
litigation.
Civil
litigation can be broken
down into stages, and
these are:
1. Presuit : which
involves presuit
investigation, including
an attempt to settle the
matter without
litigation. Settlements
can be attempted through
a presuit mediation, or
negotiations between
attorneys.
2. Filing Suit: a
lawsuit is prepared, and
filed.
3. Discovery: this is
the stage where the
costs for a lawsuit can
sky rocket. This stage
involves depositions,
interrogatories, request
for production and other
discovery procedures.
4. Trial: this is the
actual stage, when you
have the opportunity to
present your case to a
judge or jury, and
receive a verdict.
5. Appeals: this stage
is used if you decide to
appeal the outcome of
the trial to a higher
court.
One
of the great weapons of
a trial lawyer is FACTS.
The increased number of
facts a trial lawyer
posessions in a case,
the greater chance of
success for his client.
