About

Civil law deals with non criminal cases mainly involving property and civil rights. It also includes matters such as dowry, divorce, liquidation of assets, etc. A civil attorney handles out-of-court cases before going to court, which saves the client’s time. If third-party agreements are unrealistic for both parties, then the case goes to court. Since these cases are civil in nature, most of the penalties are simply fines or payments.
