What is a Civil Dispute?

​

The kind of disputes that are dealt with under civil law are those that are NOT criminal matters to be dealt with by Police.  If you feel you have been wronged and it is NOT a criminal matter, you may be able to commence legal proceedings against that person or company. An action of this kind is called litigation.  The kinds of disputes that are dealt with under civil law include disputes between:

​

• Neighbours

• Customers and suppliers

• Business partners

• Landlords and tenants

• Buyers and sellers of property

• Home owners and builders

• Employees and employers

• Executors or beneficiaries in deceased estates

• Owners of copyrights and patents

• Creditors and debtors

• Accident victims

​​

Different kinds of legal cases have different time limitations imposed so it’s important that you seek legal advice quickly to find out if you can commence legal proceedings.
