Mediation

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process where parties seek to reach a mutual understanding on their case before proceeding with trial. It is a voluntary procedure, and anything that is spoken in mediation is kept private and cannot be used by the other party in court.

Trial

A trial is the legal process where jurors or judges decide the extent to which a defendant will be held responsible for injuries and damage suffered by the plaintiff. It is a highly complex procedure that requires gathering evidence and witness testimony, expert testimony and the presentation of these in front of jurors.

The trial process is divided into two phases: the case-in chief and the closing arguments phase. Depending on the case's complexity, these two stages can take several weeks to be completed.

Each side will present their key evidence to the jury in the main case. At this point, the jury will evaluate all of the evidence and make a decision about the level of compensation they believe to be appropriate.

The lawyers of each side will give their opening statements to the jury. The opening statements will explain what they believe the case will demonstrate and how their cases will be proven. Each side could be required to present their opening statements for 30 minutes or more.

After the opening statements Each attorney is given the opportunity to present their evidence and offer their testimony as witnesses. This can include evidence like photographs or accident reports as well as expert witnesses and other evidence.

Each side will get the chance to make their closing arguments at the conclusion of the testimony and evidence phase. The arguments are based on the evidence presented and can be a way to reinforce any important arguments or arguments presented during the trial.

Both sides are able to appeal an outcome of the jury. This is done on the ground that either the jury's choice was flawed or the judge's interpretation of the law was not correct. The appeals court then examines the evidence and the decision, making new rulings or decisions on the case.
