Civil law relates to your non-criminal legal grievances with other members of the community (people, companies, organizations, agencies, etc.).

Adversarial situations are not only emotionally draining, they can also be costly. It is best to speak to an attorney who is familiar with how to resolve these situations, whether that is through the court or negotiating a settlement on your terms.

We are prepared to assess your situation; research and present options to take action to stand up for client interests.

At Arbor Law, we guide you through each phase of civil litigation. The process typically begins with filing or responding to a complaint, followed by discovery where both sides gather evidence. We handle all court filings, document preparation, and negotiations. If settlement isn’t reached, we thoroughly prepare your case for trial. Throughout the process, we keep you informed and focused on practical solutions that align with your goals.

First, contact our office before taking any action that might affect your legal rights. We’ll review your contract, documentation, and communications to assess your position. Often, we can resolve contract disputes through skilled negotiation, saving you time and money. If litigation becomes necessary, we’ll explain your options and develop a strategic approach to protect your interests.

We help you understand what damages you may be entitled to under Michigan law. This could include monetary compensation, specific performance, or other remedies. We gather necessary evidence to support your claim, work with relevant experts when needed, and present a clear case for the damages you’re seeking. Our goal is to help you obtain fair compensation while managing litigation costs effectively.

Mediation can be an efficient way to resolve disputes without the expense and uncertainty of trial. As your counsel, we prepare thoroughly for mediation, advise you throughout the process, and help negotiate favorable terms. Our experience with mediation helps achieve practical solutions while preserving business relationships when possible.

We assist with various judgment enforcement methods under Michigan law, including wage garnishment, property liens, and bank account levies. We’ll explain your options and implement the most effective collection strategy for your situation. Our goal is to help you recover what you’re owed as efficiently as possible.

5/5

I had a good experience. It was a difficult situation, but Jay was easy to work with and refused to let us get pushed around.

My attorney Jay really helped me out with a nightmare situation, he was very easy to work with. He stuck to his time estimate and didn't overbill me. This surprised me as there were several unexpected problems with my settlement. It was absolutely worth the money, just for sleeping at night, but the settlement was also much better than I expected.
