Civil litigation is a legal dispute between two parties – namely, two individuals, not businesses. The purpose of civil litigation is to come up with a resolution; either a settlement that both parties agree upon, or a judgment award granted to one party by a judge or jury. Civil litigation may involve family law matters, real estate issues, contract disputes, property disputes and tort actions.
Having an experienced and knowledgeable California civil litigator on your side during a lawsuit can make all of the difference. Your lawyer can represent you during settlement negotiations, mediation, arbitration or a trial in California to argue for the best possible results. Your lawyer can also answer your legal questions to help improve your peace of mind during the civil litigation process.
One of Attorney Stephen Fredkin’s practice areas is will and trust contests. This is an area of law that deals with an individual’s last will and testament, estate plan, and/or trusts. Someone may have to contest, or challenge, a will or trust for many different reasons, such as major mistakes, missing signatures, fraud or undue influence, or a lack of the testator’s mental capacity. Our law firm can assist you with any type of will or trust dispute in California to preserve your rights.
A business dispute is a disagreement or legal battle between two business owners. Common examples of business disputes are conflicts among partners, contract disputes, breaches of warranty, fraud or misrepresentation, unfair competition, and debt collection. Our law firm has extensive experience successfully handling many different types of business disputes throughout California.
