Litigation Lawyers in Brunswick

In Brunswick, Georgia "civil litigation" refers to the process through which a court determines legal disputes that are not criminal in nature. They can involve private and public entities.

Courts in Brunswick, Georgia do not use civil litigation as a means to punish people for their wrongdoing, or to deter future bad acts.

Civil litigation in Brunswick, Georgia is instead meant to ensure that the victims of wrongdoing are, whenever possible, given tangible compensation for the costs associated with the harm they suffered.
