When you hire an experienced litigation lawyer, they will represent you in each process and will fight for your best interests. Civil litigation attorneys can guide you through every step of the proceedings, including filing papers in court, gathering evidence, negotiating settlements, and preparing witnesses to testify before a jury or judge.
Civil litigation covers a wide range of topics, such as:
When a lawsuit must be brought within certain time limits, those limits are known as the statute of limitations. The length of time varies depending on whether you are suing someone over a breach of contract, personal injury, product liability, etc. Each type of lawsuit might have a different statute of limitations.
In New York, statutes of limitations generally range between one and six years. The time begins counting once the offense happens, which could either be the first or last act of wrongdoing. If the statute of limitations expires, the opposing party can assert this defense. However, even if the claim is not made too late, the defendant may still have a valid defense that might preclude the plaintiff from bringing their claim at all.
