Frequently Asked Questions

 

If you’ve been sued or are considering filing a lawsuit, you probably have questions. At Ahdoot Law, we believe in empowering clients through clear, honest answers. Here are answers to some of the most common questions we receive.


Q: What is civil litigation?

A: Civil litigation is the legal process used to resolve disputes between individuals or entities in court. These cases can involve contracts, property, business issues, or personal claims like fraud or negligence. Unlike criminal cases, civil litigation usually involves monetary damages or injunctive relief — not jail time.


Q: I’ve been served with a lawsuit. What do I do next?

A: Don’t ignore it. In California, you typically have 30 days to respond to a lawsuit. If you miss that deadline, the other side can request a default judgment against you. Contact an attorney immediately to assess your options and prepare a proper response.


Q: Can I settle a civil lawsuit without going to trial?

A: Yes. Most civil cases settle before trial. We always explore early resolution options — such as mediation, informal settlement, or strategic negotiation — but we also prepare every case as if it’s going to court. This puts you in the strongest position.


Q: What types of cases do you defend?
A: We defend clients in a wide range of civil matters, including:

Breach of contract
Business disputes
Real estate litigation
Construction claims
Fraud and misrepresentation
Partnership and shareholder conflicts

And more
 

Q: How much does it cost to hire a civil defense lawyer?
A: Every case is different. We offer flexible fee structures depending on the complexity of your case — from hourly rates to flat-fee options for certain services. During your consultation, we’ll walk you through the costs transparently.


Q: Will I work directly with the attorney, or just staff?
A: At Ahdoot Law, you work directly with your attorney — not just paralegals or assistants. We take a collaborative, educational approach so you understand the strategy, risks, and opportunities at every stage.
