Civil Litigation

Civil litigation is where unresolved issues go to trial. This broad area includes litigation of disputes between organizations or individuals including negligence, contract disputes, real estate disputes, or trust and estate disputes, as well as a variety of issues where 2 or more sides cannot agree. Lind & Felling often can help our clients settle their disputes and receive any compensation rightfully owed to them or settle claims others may have raised against our clients outside of court, but if you do need to go to trial (also known as litigation), we will zealously, but respectfully represent only your interests.
