Litigation and Dispute Resolution refers to the legal processes used to resolve conflicts or disputes between parties. It encompasses both courtroom litigation and alternative dispute resolution methods.

• Litigation: This is the formal legal process where disputes are presented and resolved in court. It involves filing lawsuits, presenting evidence, and arguing cases before a judge or jury. Litigation is typically used for civil, criminal, corporate, or commercial matters.

• Dispute Resolution: This includes alternative methods like mediation, arbitration, or negotiation, which aim to resolve conflicts without going to court. These methods are often faster, less formal, and more cost-effective.

The goal of Litigation and Dispute Resolution is to protect legal rights, enforce agreements, and achieve fair outcomes in a structured, legal framework.
