Civil Law

Civil law governs non-criminal disputes between individuals, organizations, or government entities. It is the body of law that deals with legal wrongs that are not classified as criminal offenses. Civil cases often involve seeking compensation or specific performance rather than punishment. Civil law covers a wide range of issues, including contracts, property, torts (civil wrongs), personal injury, and family law.

Contract Law: This pertains to disputes over the terms and enforcement of written or verbal agreements between two or more parties. A breach of contract can result in financial compensation or enforcement of the agreement.
Tort Law: Civil wrongs that result in harm or injury to others fall under tort law. Common examples include negligence, defamation, personal injury claims, and product liability.
Property Law: Disputes regarding ownership, use, and transfer of property (real and personal) are governed by civil law.
