How Does Civil Litigation Work in Virginia?
If you’re preparing for a civil lawsuit, it can be helpful to know what you’re getting into. Generally speaking, there are three legal phases that you should be aware of: pre-trial, trial, and post-trial phases. During the pre-trial phase, both parties will gather evidence. This sometimes requires parties to request material from one another and share evidence.
Many cases are resolved at this stage. The trial phase, if necessary, is when the case is litigated in a courtroom. In the post-trial phase, both sides work with the court to resolve any remaining issues, file paperwork, and carry out their court-ordered obligations.

Litigation is an important tool for individuals and businesses wanting to settle legal disagreements. It is, perhaps, the most effective way to ensure that all the involved parties honor their obligations and reach a fair resolution according to the law. For example, when a business negotiates and executes a contract with another business, they are legally exchanging obligations, promises, and liabilities. In other words, one party agrees to provide a good or service to the other in exchange for some sort of value. If you followed up on your contractual promise but the other side did not, civil litigation is your legal resource.
Similarly, when someone makes false and damaging statements against you or your business (defamation), and it negatively impacts you and your commercial success, civil litigation can help you seek financial compensation for any damages it caused. It can also help prevent future instances of defamation. Civil litigation can also resolve other issues, like product liability claims or lawsuits against your landlord or tenant.
Renter disagreements can arise for several reasons, such as rental property hazards, tenant rights, repair responsibilities, and more. In all these cases, civil litigation can help you definitively determine who is responsible for what. Or, if you were using a product and it caused you injury, you can sue the manufacturer to recover health care costs and other monetary damages.
When it comes to resolving a legal dispute in court, it’s important to keep in mind that choosing the right legal team can make all the difference in the world. A good civil litigation lawyer will be able to provide you with accurate and personalized legal advice, as well as effective courtroom representation.
