LITIGATION

​

What is litigation?

 

Litigation is the term used to describe proceedings initiated between two opposing parties to enforce or defend a legal right. Litigation is often settled by a negotiated agreement between the parties, but may also be heard and decided by a jury or judge in court.  Only about 10% of proceedings end up being heard in Court.

A proceeding may simply be an exchange of letters to resolve a dispute between parties, and/or face to face negotiations, but may also involve a lawsuit filed with the Court, and may go as far as the highest Court in the country.
