What is Civil Litigation?

“Civil litigation” is a term used to describe a legal dispute between parties who are seeking monetary compensation or specific performance, rather than criminal charges or penalties. It applies to any legal dispute involving two or more parties.

A civil action is the legal process to enforce the laws meant to protect you and your rights.  It also provides a means of defending yourself with claims against you.
