Civil Litigation
Civil litigation can be expensive, dauntingly complex and fraught with procedural hurdles, and should never be entered into lightly or without professional counsel. It is a good idea to consult with an experienced Florida civil litigation attorney at SmithLaw before pursuing or defending a litigation matter. In civil litigation, upon the submission of allegations constituting a valid cause of action, the trier-of-fact (a judge or jury) will resolve factual disputes and the judge will resolve matters of law. Judgment is awarded to the prevailing party.
​
At SmithLaw, we accept most litigation matters on an hourly basis, and may accept some cases on a contingency basis or hybrid basis (partial hourly, partial contingency) based on selective factors.
