What Is Civil Litigation?

Civil litigation involves legal disputes between two or more parties seeking monetary compensation, contractual enforcement, or specific performance—rather than criminal penalties. In the UAE, civil litigation is governed by the Federal Civil Procedures Law, with cases heard in civil courts, free zone courts (DIFC and ADGM), or arbitration centers, depending on jurisdiction and agreement between parties.
