Frequently Asked Questions About Litigation

Our litigation practice encompasses a broad spectrum of civil disputes including contract conflicts, property disputes, business disagreements, employment matters, probate contests, and construction issues. While we don’t handle criminal defense cases, our civil litigation experience spans virtually every area of our practice. During your initial consultation, we’ll evaluate your specific situation and provide straightforward guidance about potential approaches and outcomes.

The timeline for litigation varies significantly depending on case complexity, court scheduling, and whether settlement is possible. Simple matters might resolve in months, while complex cases can extend beyond a year, particularly if appeals are involved. While we can’t control all factors affecting timeline, we work efficiently to move your case forward while keeping you informed about progress and expected timeframes at each stage.

Many disputes can be resolved without a full trial through alternative approaches including negotiated settlements, mediation, and arbitration. These methods often save time, money, and stress while allowing more control over outcomes. Our litigation team evaluates each case for settlement potential and advises on the most advantageous resolution path, whether that means early settlement discussions or preparing aggressively for trial to strengthen your negotiating position.
