Frequently Asked Questions
What types of cases does a civil litigation lawyer handle in Rancho Palos Verdes?
A civil litigation lawyer handles disputes that do not involve criminal charges. Common cases include breach of contract, real estate disputes, and personal injury claims. In California, these lawyers also handle business partnership disagreements and neighbor boundary conflicts.
How long do I have to file a civil lawsuit in California?
The time limit to file a lawsuit depends on the type of case. For oral contracts, you have two years under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 339. For written contracts, the limit is four years under Section 337. Personal injury cases must be filed within two years of the injury.
What is the difference between civil litigation and mediation in California?
