Litigation is the process of taking legal action to resolve a dispute. It involves:
* Filing a lawsuit: This is the formal document initiating the legal process.
* Discovery: Both parties gather evidence and information from each other.
* Pre-trial motions: These are requests to the court for rulings on specific issues.
* Trial: The parties present their evidence and arguments to a judge or jury.
* Judgment: The court issues a decision on the case.
