What are Legal Disputes & Litigation?

Legal disputes or litigation can come about when there is a disagreement between parties about their rights or obligations under the law. These disputes can arise in all areas of law and RossiLaw can assist in regard to such disputes within its areas of service.

Litigation is commenced where disputes are required to be resolved through the court system and can be a timely way to resolve a dispute. Here’s a simplified breakdown of the process:

  1. Pleadings: Each party files formal documents stating their claims and defences.
  2. Discovery: Both sides exchange information and gather evidence to support their cases.
  3. Trial: The case is presented to a judge or jury, who decides based on the evidence and arguments.
  4. Judgement: A final decision is issued, which may be appealed by either party.

Legal disputes can, whether via court or not, be resolved through:

Negotiation
Direct discussions between parties to reach a mutually acceptable agreement.
Mediation
A neutral third party helps the parties reach a voluntary settlement.
Arbitration
A neutral third party makes a binding decision after hearing both sides' arguments.
Litigation
Taking the dispute to court for a legal judgment.
