Litigation Lawyers in Casper

Casper, Wyoming civil litigation is a means of resolving legal disputes that aren't criminal in nature. These disputes can involve private parties, government entities, or a combination of the two.

In Casper, Wyoming, the purpose of civil litigation is not punishment or retribution for the offender, or to deter future wrongdoing.

Rather than punishing wrongdoers, civil litigation in Casper, Wyoming serves the purpose of compensating people when they have been injured, and can prove that another party bears sufficient fault to be held liable for the harm. Normally, this compensation comes in the form of money. However, there are other remedies, such as injunctions, which are available in some cases.
