What is Commercial Litigation in Manchester?

Commercial litigation is a legal dispute between businesses or companies. (The term covers any dispute resolution claims where there is some level of corporate involvement.) In most commercial litigation cases, one party will be seeking reimbursement, typically financial, from the other party. They will generally regard this reimbursement as otherwise difficult or impossible to obtain.

Commercial litigation is considered in some circles to be a subset or subcategory of civil litigation – both are similar in that they concern legal action which doesn’t involve criminal charges.

However, civil litigation and commercial litigation do exhibit some key differences, the foremost of which being that civil litigation tends to involve individuals, and therefore the claims are more simple and straightforward to resolve. By contrast, commercial litigation claims tend to be far more complex, and thus can take a lot longer to reach a resolution.
