Litigation practice encompasses representing clients in civil and commercial disputes across forums such as district courts, High Courts, the Supreme Court, tribunals like NCLT and DRT, and regulatory bodies like RERA. It spans contract disputes, IP enforcement, recovery suits, employment matters, and real estate conflicts. #### When should a business engage a litigation lawyer rather than handle disputes internally? Engage litigation counsel when you receive a statutory notice, face regulatory proceedings, or when a commercial dispute risks escalating to court. Early involvement helps preserve evidence, meet limitation deadlines under the Limitation Act 1963, and explore pre-litigation settlement to contain costs. #### Which Indian statutes and forums commonly govern commercial litigation? Key statutes include the Code of Civil Procedure 1908, the Commercial Courts Act 2015, the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996, and sector laws like RERA, the Companies Act 2013, and SARFAESI Act. Forums range from Commercial Courts and NCLT to consumer commissions and cooperative courts. #### How long does a typical commercial litigation case take in Indian courts? Timelines vary widely. A commercial suit under the Commercial Courts Act aims for disposal within 12 to 18 months, but contested matters in High Courts may take 3 to 5 years. Key cost drivers include interim application hearings, volume of evidence, number of witnesses, and adjournments. #### What documents are typically needed to initiate a litigation matter in India? You will generally need the underlying contract or agreement, all correspondence exchanged, board resolutions authorising legal action, a vakalatnama, relevant financial records, and any statutory notices served or received. Organised documentation at the outset strengthens case preparation significantly. #### What common mistakes do companies make when managing litigation in India? Frequent pitfalls include missing limitation periods, filing in an incorrect jurisdiction, failing to secure interim relief early, and neglecting to align litigation strategy with commercial objectives. Poor record keeping and delayed engagement of counsel often weaken otherwise meritorious claims.
