Frequently Asked Questions

What is litigation?

Litigation refers to the process of resolving legal disputes through the court system. It involves filing a lawsuit, presenting arguments and evidence, and seeking a judgment or verdict from a judge or jury.

When should I consider litigation as a solution?

Litigation should be considered when other attempts at resolving a dispute, such as negotiation or mediation, have been unsuccessful. If you believe your rights have been violated, you have suffered damages, or you need a Court to enforce a contract or legal obligation, litigation may be necessary.

How long does the litigation process typically take?

The duration of litigation can vary widely depending on the complexity of the case, the court’s schedule, and other factors. Some cases can be resolved relatively quickly, while others may take months or even years. Your lawyer will provide you with a realistic timeline based on the specific details of your case.

What are the alternatives to litigation?

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods, such as negotiation, mediation, and arbitration, offer alternatives to traditional litigation. These methods can be less formal, faster, and more cost-effective, allowing parties to reach mutually agreeable solutions outside of court. Our firm is experienced in ADR and can help you explore these options.

How much will litigation cost?

The cost of litigation can vary depending on various factors, including the complexity of the case, the amount of time involved, and the need for expert witnesses or other resources. During your initial consultation, we will discuss our fee structure, including any retainer fees and billing arrangements, and provide you with an estimate of the potential costs involved.

Can I settle my case without going to trial?

Yes, it is often possible to reach a settlement without going to trial. Settlement negotiations can occur at any stage of the litigation process, even before a lawsuit is filed. Our lawyers are skilled negotiators and will work diligently to secure a favourable settlement that meets your needs and objectives.

Will I have to appear in Court?

While it is possible that you may need to appear in Court, the majority of cases settle or are resolved through motions and other legal procedures without the need for a full trial. If your case does proceed to trial, our lawyers will provide you with guidance and support throughout the process.

If you have any additional questions or would like to schedule a consultation, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to assist you and address your legal needs.

What our clients say

"From the day Langham Lawyers took over we learnt that not all solicitors are equal. At our first conference Irma Remic organised for a barrister also specialising in will disputes to also be there. That was the first time we actually understood what our case involved. Irma was very understanding in supportive in a case that brought up good and bad memories. She really cared about my case and would keep me updated even following the mediation. I am so happy with the result..."
