CIVIL DISPUTES

Civil Litigation is a term of art that describes the process of managing a legal dispute that is civil, as opposed to criminal, in nature. A civil litigator is a trial lawyer that focuses their experience and training on matters that have monetary damages attached to them. The term litigation applies to a broad range of disputes and can be corporate or personal in nature. Whether you are a business owner, a professional, a parent, or an injured person, if you are involved in a legal dispute you need the skills and experience of a reputable firm known for its expertise and attentive diligence to understanding the full breadth of North Carolina’s laws. The lawyers at DeMent Askew & Johnson are skilled and experienced trial attorneys.
