The 5-Step Process of a Lawsuit
1) Initial Meeting Between Lawyer and Client to:
- Discuss potential claims and available options.
- Prepare and file the Complaint or Answer the Complaint.
2) Discovery (e.g. Investigation)
- Interrogatories – Requesting information through written questions to the parties.
- Requests for Production – Asking for documents from the parties to the lawsuit or from 3rd parties.
3) Depositions
- Asking oral questions of key witnesses under oath.
4) Mediation, or Is Settlement Possible?
The Court often requires the parties to try to settle before the case goes to trial. We recommend this as well. In mediation, both sides sit down with an independent specially trained, and neutral mediator who assists the parties to find common ground for resolving the case.
5) Trial (If Necessary)
