What is Litigation?
Litigation is the process of resolving disputes between private parties through the judicial system. Litigants bring cases to court against opposing parties (parties can also be different government departments) and present arguments based on existing statutes or their interpretation of existing case law. A judge then decides the outcome, resulting in either a judgment for one party or a settlement in a civil case. In a criminal case, the judge may decide on a guilty or not guilty verdict.
Litigation is used in business settings when disagreements arise between two companies over their respective rights and duties, but it can also be used to resolve family conflicts or even international disputes.
What do Litigation Lawyers do?
Litigation Lawyers work in the public or private sector, representing their clients in any court of law. Litigation lawyers are involved with all aspects of litigation, from preparation to trial, negotiations, hearings, and decision-making. The skills required for this role are strong communication abilities, research skills, persuasive writing ability, negotiation skills, and attention to detail. Litigation lawyers can work as sole practitioners or as part of a legal firm. Specializations within this field include criminal defense, bankruptcy law, and intellectual property litigation (such as patents and trademarks).
Why is studying Litigation important?
Studying Litigation can provide you with the skills, knowledge, and understanding to become an effective litigator. An undergraduate degree or professional qualification in this field will give you a solid foundation of legal principles that are vital for success in this career path. Graduates are well-equipped to pursue careers in litigation, including private practice, corporate law firms, in-house legal departments, and government.
What will I study during my Litigation degree?
There are many different types of Litigation degrees available, depending on whether you wish to specialize in criminal or commercial litigation. Degrees tend to focus on the fundamentals of law, including common law and legislation. You will study legal reasoning and judgment skills, as well as develop your critical thinking abilities. Some courses may allow certain students to undertake an internship at a legal firm to gain practical experience.
