Millions of people each year reach the conclusion that the only way the situation in which they find themselves will be resolved— the stressful, costly, and exasperating situation—is if they go to court. Alternatively, millions of other people each year find themselves named as defendants in a lawsuit—often an unexpected situation for which they’re unprepared—based on circumstances that are equally stressful, costly and exasperating.
Regardless of whether you’re the plaintiff or the defendant, if you find yourself settling a dispute within the confines of the civil justice system the sooner you understand the mechanics and nuances of the system, the more likely you are to have a successful outcome. Civil Law and the Civil Justice Process: A Client's Guide is an invaluable resource for understanding the law and navigating the civil justice system.
