litigation

Business litigation can be broadly defined as the legal processes for resolving disputes involving a business, and may include lawsuits, arbitration, mediation, and administrative law proceedings. These business disputes may involve customers, vendors, other businesses, members of the public, insurance companies, or state and federal government agencies.

In North Carolina, business litigation encompasses a variety of legal disputes that businesses may encounter. This includes conflicts with customers, suppliers, other businesses, the public, insurers, and government entities. The resolution of these disputes can occur through several avenues such as lawsuits in state or federal courts, arbitration, mediation, or administrative hearings. North Carolina's court system is structured to handle business disputes through its district and superior courts, with the possibility of appeals to the North Carolina Court of Appeals and the North Carolina Supreme Court. Additionally, the state has a specialized tribunal, the North Carolina Business Court, which handles complex business cases, including issues of corporate and commercial law. The choice of litigation, arbitration, or mediation often depends on prior agreements between parties, the nature of the dispute, and strategic considerations. State statutes, case law, and federal laws, where applicable, govern the proceedings and resolution of business disputes in North Carolina.
