What is Commercial Litigation?

Commercial litigation is a legal dispute between businesses or companies. In fact, the term covers any dispute resolution claims where there is some type of corporate involvement. In most cases one side will be seeking reimbursement, typically financial, which they will regard as otherwise difficult or impossible to obtain.

Commercial litigation is sometimes considered to be a subset or subcategory of civil litigation; both are similar in that they concern legal action which does not involve any criminal charges.

One of the main differences is that most types of civil litigation involves individuals, and therefore tends to be more straightforward and relatively quick to resolve. Given that commercial litigation claims tend to be more complex, they can take a lot longer to reach a resolution.
