The Law In Plain English: LITIGATION

When people think of lawyers they tend to think of courtroom drama from Perry Mason, Tom Cruise or the O.J. Simpson trial. The reality is very few disputes ever go to court. The best lawyers are those that can help a person clarify what their legal position is and then act quickly to help get it resolved. 

Litigation can be a long, expensive, and stressful process. Working with people to get the best outcome is often preferable to going to court.

Sometimes an issue arises that is very complicated and needs the judgment of the court. It’s only then that a lawyer has to see if their court robes still fit from the last time they were in court!
