What is Civil Law?

Civil Law is the part of the law that deals with disputes between private people, organizations, or companies. It covers situations where someone believes they have been wronged or harmed by another and wants the court to help fix the problem.


Examples of Civil Law Cases

  • Disagreements over contracts or agreements

  • Property disputes (like ownership or boundary issues)

  • Divorce and family matters

  • Personal injury claims (like accidents causing harm)

  • Debt recovery or unpaid loans

  • Issues with businesses or services


How Civil Law Works

  • One party (the plaintiff) files a case against another party (the defendant).

  • The court listens to both sides, looks at evidence, and decides who is right.

  • If the defendant is found responsible, the court may order them to pay money, return property, or take some action to fix the issue.

  • Civil law does not involve criminal punishment (like jail), but instead focuses on resolving problems and compensating the injured party.
