Civil Litigation Solicitors You Can Trust
Civil litigation is a broad area of the law involving the resolution of disputes or claims between individuals, companies, local authorities and government departments by the court. At John Fowlers Solicitors, our Civil Litigation Solicitors have the skills and experience to guide you through every stage of your case, whether you are a private individual or a multi‑million‑pound business.
Types of Civil Disputes
Civil disputes typically fall into two main categories:
- Contract Disputes - Disagreements over the interpretation or performance of agreements between two or more parties.
- Civil Wrong Disputes (Torts) - Claims arising from wrongful acts, either deliberate or through negligence, such as personal injury or negligence claims.
