Business litigation is the process of resolving disputes between businesses or individuals in a commercial context. It typically starts with contract interpretation, performance disputes, or allegations of breach, followed by discovery, negotiation, and potential trial.
Key elements include clearly identifying issues, gathering evidence, evaluating damages, and pursuing enforceable remedies. The process typically involves pleadings, discovery, pretrial motions, negotiation, and, if needed, trial or arbitration.
This glossary defines common terms used in business litigation to help you understand the process.
Discovery is the pre‑trial phase where each side requests documents, information, and testimony to build their case.

Litigation is the formal process of resolving a dispute in court, including filings, hearings, and a trial.
