COMMERCIAL LITIGATION

Commercial litigation involves one party suing another for unlawful actions within a commercial relationship. These cases transpire between various types of business entities, be it collaborations, partnerships, or corporations. At its core, commercial litigation pivots around disputes rooted in business operations or transactions. This can span a wide array of issues, from breach of contract actions and business torts to intellectual property infringements and tax disputes.

Commercial litigation vs. civil litigation


Commercial litigation generally encompasses legal disputes between companies, often centering on various business-related matters such as contract disputes, intellectual property rights, shareholder disagreements, and regulatory compliance issues.

Civil litigation typically arises between individuals or entities and revolves around resolving disputes through the legal system. It does not center on criminal acts, but rather focuses on seeking legal remedies for, civil wrongs or breaches of contract.
