Litigation Lawyer Palm Bay, FL
A litigation lawyer is a civil attorney who practices civil litigation and tries cases in civil court. They represent clients in non-criminal matters, often in matters dealing with compensation one party may owe another. A personal injury lawyer is one type of litigator; another may be a contract attorney, focusing on helping a client who suffered financial loss or other damages due to a breach of contract. If you need help pursuing a legal matter that doesn’t involve criminal charges, a Palm Bay, FL, litigation lawyer can advocate for your interests and achieve a positive resolution for your legal concern.

They represent clients in a variety of civil court proceedings, from pre-trial hearings or depositions to guidance in mediation or arbitration, investigation of cases involving compensatory damages, and representation in trial.

What Does A Palm Bay Litigation Lawyer Do?
Civil litigation lawyers represent private individuals or businesses in non-criminal legal matters, often involving a lawsuit. The concerns in question can range from demanding compensation for injuries caused by another party’s negligence to enforcing the terms of a contract, issues of landlord-tenant disputes, or even what happens when one neighbor cuts down part of another neighbor’s tree.
We represent your interests in court, gathering evidence to support your position and filing all legal motions and documents needed to advance those interests. Many civil matters are settled out of court, before a trial, in mediation (guided negotiations) or arbitration, a process similar to court but with more relaxed rules for presenting evidence.
Do I Need A Civil Litigation Attorney?
You may have more legal options than you realize when faced with financial loss after the negligence of another party. When the stakes are high, we’re the lawyers you want on your side.
If you’re pursuing commercial litigation, then you may be required to hire an attorney. Florida law requires business plaintiffs (the party seeking redress of grievances through compensatory damages) and defendants to be represented by a lawyer in court unless the matter is heard in small claims court (claims worth less than $8,000). So, if you have a commercial legal matter beyond the jurisdiction of small claims matters, then you do need a lawyer.
Even for small claims matters, the advice of a litigation attorney can be invaluable. We know how to construct a case properly and how to present evidence to a judge. We can help you achieve a better result than you could alone or solve the matter without the stress of a trial.
Some of the types of case we handle include:
- Debt collections
- Family law matters
- Shareholder & partnership disputes
- Construction Litigation
- Commercial disputes
- Investment disputes
- Probate and will contests
- Declaratory judgment actions
- Business disputes
- Breach of contract
- Contract disputes
- Commercial landlord/tenant disputes
