Understanding the Civil Litigation Process in New Jersey

When you choose a New Jersey civil litigation lawyer at Helmer, Conley & Kasselman, P.A., your company’s lawyer first will investigate the matter in order to determine whether there is a potential case and if it makes sense to file a lawsuit (or if your company needs to be prepared to assert a defense). Investigators and expert witnesses may be utilized to help establish certain key facts, particularly if complex or novel financial or business issues are involved. In this type of scenario, your lawyer will work closely with not only with your company’s key stakeholders and General Counsel, but also these experts as necessary in order to build an effective case strategy and achieve a successful result.

If it is determined that there is enough information and evidence to support a claim, your company’s lawyer will conduct discovery and zealously negotiate for an efficient and favorable result. Most lawsuits are settled without going to court. The information gathered during our firm’s investigation and through the discovery process will help strengthen your company’s case and be used during settlement negotiations.

Understanding the Potential Outcomes of Civil Litigation

In civil litigation, money damages may be awarded to the successful party, or the court may require a specific performance or issue an injunction (or the court may award some combination of the above). In contractual disputes, the terms of the parties’ agreement may specify alternate or additional remedies as well. At Helmer, Conley & Kasselman, P.A., we have extensive experience in settlement negotiations, mediation, arbitration, pre-trial practice and trial litigation, and we can use this experience to protect your company’s assets through effective settlement negotiations, in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) or at trial.
