What Is Litigation?

Litigation is a technique to resolve legal issues that puts the final decision in the hands of a judge or jury, depending on the circumstances. Mediation, negotiation, and arbitration are additional ways to resolve disputes, but litigation is the most formal since both sides must follow legal procedures and submit their claims in court. This is the most contentious course of action and is often necessary when negotiations fail or the problem worsens. The majority of cases settle out of court, using litigation as a last resort. If your situation necessitates litigation, our experienced litigation attorneys will work to protect your rights and interests while pursuing a favorable outcome.

Types Of Cases We Commonly Handle

At The Law Office of Patel & Cardenas, we take on challenging litigation cases that other companies refuse. You can count on us to advocate for your best interests! If you are seeking legal representation in Princeton, rest assured that our attorneys have extensive courtroom experience and can effectively handle your case. Despite not accepting every client or case, we often help people residing in upstate New Jersey with:

Probate litigation – A death without a trust usually leads to probate. When a person dies without a plan in place for how to distribute their assets, the state will intervene and distribute their assets and property to their heirs pursuant to their will, if one exists, or New Jersey intestate statutes. Probate can get messy as family members may argue over inheritance and the validity of the will, while creditors may make illegitimate claims on the remaining funds.  Many things can lead to litigation. We can defend your rights and your loved one’s legacy as a beneficiary, estate executor/personal representative! 

Consumer fraud litigation – There are laws in place to protect consumers from being sold products that are defective, dangerous, or falsely advertised! If you have a complaint against a company because of one of their products, we can investigate your claim and seek the justice (and monetary compensation) you deserve. 

Employment-related litigation – Several laws protect employees against employer mistreatment. We can sue your company for discrimination, wrongful termination, or other claims if your company is violating the law! 

Foreclosure litigation – Don’t panic. Several protections exist! Princeton lawsuit attorneys can ensure lenders have taken the appropriate legal measures to foreclose on your property, and if not, we can fight to protect your rights! We can explain various ways to avoid foreclosure and ways to keep your home if you are falling behind on your mortgage payments.

Interpleader actions – Third parties can receive legal protection if they are involved in a dispute over an asset they own! If someone dies and their spouse and children quarrel over who gets their insurance policy, the insurance company can file an interpleader case with the court and let the court decide. If you need help filing or receiving interpleader actions, we can assist you.

Partition actions – When two people co-own a piece of property, a partition move splits the property in two and sells the profits so that each person gets an equal amount. We can protect your interests and your property in these cases, despite the fact that they may be difficult to understand.

And more.
