Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • Litigation involves resolving disputes in court, where both parties present their arguments for the judge's decision. In contrast, arbitration is a private process where both parties agree that a neutral party will provide a binding decision. Arbitration is often faster and less formal than litigation, provided it is agreed upon in a contract.

  • A civil suit in Singapore involves legal action initiated by an individual against another party in court. This encompasses a wide range of cases, from product damage claims to corporate disputes. General civil suits are open to the public in court hearings.

  • Singapore's court system has established regulations for individuals intending to start a civil suit. Initiating a case involves filing a writ of request or originating summons, followed by a formal civil procedure. Once filed, the court issues the required forms to commence legal proceedings against the defendant.
