Civil Trials

Pearson Law Office represents clients in many areas of civil litigation, as detailed in our website. Examples of such civil disputes would be contract cases, family and domestic disputes, personal injury cases, wrongful death, medical malpractice, commercial and business disputes, and real estate and construction issues. 

When individuals or companies are unable to resolve their disputes, our attorneys are often called upon to either file a lawsuit or defend against a lawsuit. After a lawsuit is filed, it can take up to one to two years until the case is resolved by a trial. Much of this time is consumed by gathering information from the opposing party. This process is called discovery, and includes interrogatories, requests for documents and depositions. Some trials are presided over by a Judge, and with others there is a right to a trial by jury. 

Our attorneys are experienced in civil litigation, having been through many Court hearings and trials. Our attorneys have done trials in State Court as well as Federal Court, resulting in successful judgments and verdicts. After a trial, there are many post-trial motions and an appeal process that may be useful. Our attorneys are experienced in these areas as well.  Please contact us with questions of for more information.
