Commercial Litigation: An Overview

 

In civil litigation cases, two parties seek to advance or defend a legal right in a court of law, with the plaintiff usually seeking monetary compensation for damages caused by the defendant. In commercial litigation cases, these disputes involve businesses or companies.

 

Commercial litigation is—generally speaking—much more complex than civil litigation, as these cases involve corporations rather than individuals. In many situations, these cases are dealt with at the federal level rather than the state level. Some commercial litigation cases involve multi-district litigation or class action cases.

​
