Burlington Civil Litigation Lawyers assist clients who have been unable to settle a dispute with another party. In most cases the next course of action is to engage a Civil Litigation lawyer to file a civil lawsuit.
In Ontario, there are three levels of civil court, depending on the amount of damages being sought.
Small Claims Court

Superior Court of Justice
Superior Court of Justice
Simplified Procedure
For disputes between $10,000 and $50,000, the Superior Court of Justice provides a Simplified Procedure that eliminates many of the costly steps that are present in the Superior Court process.

Personal Injury Lawyers
Personal Injury Lawyers deal with a specific type of Civil Litigation cases, namely those involving physical injury or emotional harm to the damaged party. Due to the large number of Personal Injury cases and the relatively large settlement amounts that are involved, many Personal Injury lawyers restrict their practice to this very specific field of Civil Litigation, while others may practice in related areas such as Employment Law.
Divorce and Family Lawyers
While some aspects of Divorce and Family Law do not involve Civil Litigation, Divorce itself is a specific form of Civil Litigation. Due to the large number of Divorce cases and the nuances involved, many Family and Divorce lawyers do not handle Civil Litigation cases that fall outside their realm of expertise, while others may practice in related areas such as Employment Law.
Employment Lawyers (Wrongful Dismissal Lawyers)
While some aspects of Employment Law do not involve Civil Litigation, Wrongful Dismissal itself is a specific form of Civil Litigation. Employment Lawyers may also practice in related areas of Civil Litigation such as Divorce and Family Law, or Personal Injury Law.
