What is civil law?

Civil law, also known as civil law, covers conflicts between citizens among themselves, citizens and businesses, and businesses among themselves. This never involves a conflict involving governments. In civil proceedings, there is always a plaintiff and defendant. The plaintiff is the party that starts the proceedings and the defendant is the party that has to defend itself. There is always a conflict between two parties in civil proceedings.
Civil law governs all the rights and obligations that businesses and citizens have toward each other. Cases that are common and fall under civil law are noise nuisance, maintenance and right of way. Our lawyers can assist you during the legal process.

Civil law cases

There are several cases that fall under civil law. The parties who may be affected can be divided into three groups: businesses, citizens and foundations.

Companies

A company can come into contact with civil law in a variety of ways. For example, an employee may be fired, and this employee may have his reasons for filing a civil suit. This therefore involves a conflict between a company and a citizen. It may also involve a conflict between two companies, with one company being the plaintiff.

Citizens

Citizens may also soon come into contact with civil law. These often involve personal situations, such as conflicts within the family. For example, divorce falls under civil law. It often involves family law or inheritance law.

Foundations

In addition to corporations and citizens, foundations sometimes have to deal with civil law. A foundation is different from a corporation. Here, an internal supervisor is not required, making them more likely to fall victim to criminal activity.
