What is General Litigation?

General litigation encompasses the legal process of resolving disputes through court proceedings or alternative methods, covering both civil and criminal cases. It involves various stages, including investigation, pleadings, discovery, trial, and potential appeal, with the goal of achieving a resolution that upholds the law and addresses the parties’ interests. Civil cases may involve contract disputes, personal injury claims, or property disagreements, while criminal cases entail prosecutions brought by the government against individuals accused of committing crimes.

Key aspects of general litigation include the types of cases it encompasses and the methods used to resolve them. Litigation can involve negotiations, mediation, arbitration, or traditional court proceedings, depending on the parties’ preferences and the complexity of the case. Regardless of the type of dispute, litigation serves as a vital mechanism for upholding the rule of law, resolving conflicts, and administering justice within society by providing a structured framework for parties to seek legal remedies, enforce their rights, and defend against allegations of wrongdoing.
