Little Known Facts and Figures about Lawsuits

SPACE

 

  

When people are unable to resolve their disputes privately many then choose to go to court.   However, many people don't realize how long it takes or how much it costs to complete a lawsuit.   It takes an average of 25 months to complete a civil trial in the United States.   Most people can't afford to wait that long and dismiss their suits before anything is decided in court.  

Someone is injured in an automobile accident.  Someone slips and falls as a result of the negligence or another.   Someone files for divorce.   These are just a few situations that often lead to litigation.  More than 19 million new civil lawsuits are filed every year in the United States.   The largest category of cases filed tend to involve claims and disputes over contracts.  

 

     

 

Research shows that courts usually only act as a "middle man" to settle dispute.  Less than 1% of all lawsuits end with a trial.   More than half of the parties who file civil lawsuits in the US later decide to voluntarily dismiss their suits rather than continuing to invest the additional time and money required to go to trial.    Why?  because during the course of pursuing their lawsuit, the parties usually find a more effective way to resolve their disputes out of court.    That's what this website is all about, resources, research and a team of professionals dedicated to help businesses and individuals stay out of court and resolve their disputes privately.
