Frequently Asked Questions
How long does civil litigation take?
The duration of civil litigation varies depending on case complexity, court schedules, and whether settlement is reached. Simple matters may resolve in 6-12 months, while complex cases can take 2-3 years or longer. We work efficiently to expedite proceedings while ensuring thorough representation.
What are the costs of litigation?
Litigation costs include legal fees, court filing fees, service fees, and potential expert witness costs. We provide transparent fee structures and cost estimates upfront. In many cases, successful parties may recover legal costs from the losing party as awarded by the court.
Can disputes be resolved without going to court?
Yes, many disputes can be resolved through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration. We actively explore alternative dispute resolution methods as they can be faster, less costly, and less adversarial than litigation. However, we are fully prepared to litigate when settlement is not possible.
What is the likelihood of winning my case?
Case outcomes depend on the strength of evidence, applicable law, and quality of legal representation. During our initial consultation, we provide an honest assessment of your case merits, potential risks, and likely outcomes based on our experience and legal analysis.
