What Is Civil Litigation?

Civil litigation is the legal process used to resolve non-criminal disputes between two or more parties. These cases often involve disagreements over money, property, contracts, or rights. Unlike criminal cases, civil matters are typically resolved through financial compensation or court-ordered actions rather than incarceration.

At Shep Law Group, we handle a variety of civil disputes, including:

– Breach of contract
– Business and partnership disputes
– Real estate conflicts and boundary issues
– Landlord-tenant disputes
– Property damage claims
– Construction defects
– Personal injury claims
– Insurance coverage and bad faith
– Employment disagreements
– Defamation, libel, and slander
– Debt collection and enforcement
– Injunctions and restraining orders

No matter the size or complexity of your case, we approach each matter with diligence, determination, and a focus on results.

Plaintiff and Defense Representation

Whether you’re the one bringing a lawsuit (plaintiff) or defending against one (defendant), you need a legal team that understands both sides of the courtroom. Our civil litigation attorneys are experienced in representing both plaintiffs and defendants, giving us valuable insight into how opposing counsel may build their case—and how to counter it.

We begin every case by evaluating the facts, identifying the legal issues, and discussing your desired outcome. From there, we craft a tailored legal strategy focused on either securing compensation or limiting your exposure and liability.

The Civil Litigation Process in Idaho

Civil lawsuits typically follow a series of stages, each requiring careful preparation and legal skill. These stages include:

– Case evaluation and investigation
– Filing a complaint or responding to one
– Pre-trial motions and discovery (gathering evidence and witness testimony)
– Settlement discussions and mediation
– Trial preparation and courtroom representation
– Appeals, if necessary

We guide you through every step, explaining your rights and options along the way. While we are always prepared to go to trial, we also understand the value of timely, cost-effective settlements. Whenever possible, we pursue resolutions outside of court that still protect your interests.

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)

Not every case needs to go to court. We often resolve civil disputes through alternative dispute resolution methods such as:

-Mediation: A neutral third party helps both sides reach a voluntary agreement.
-Arbitration:A private process where an arbitrator makes a binding decision.
-Negotiation: Direct discussions between parties or attorneys to reach settlement.

ADR can save time, money, and stress—and in many cases, preserve important relationships. We help you determine whether alternative resolution is appropriate and represent your interests throughout the process.

Business and Commercial Litigation

Running a business means making tough decisions—and sometimes, that includes dealing with legal conflicts. Whether you’re a small business owner or a growing corporation, we provide legal support for:

– Contract enforcement
– Shareholder and partner disputes
– Non-compete or non-disclosure violations
– Business torts such as fraud or misrepresentation
– Vendor or customer disagreements
– Commercial lease issues

We understand that your business reputation and financial well-being are on the line, and we work tirelessly to protect both.

– Boundary and easement disputes
