Civil Litigation law in Georgia, in brief
Civil disputes in Georgia start in Magistrate Court for claims up to $15,000, where no lawyer is required, and in State or Superior Court above that. Written contract claims have a six year deadline, oral contracts four, and most injury and property damage claims two.
Litigation attorneys handle pleadings, discovery, motions, mediation and trial. Many Georgia courts require mediation before a case reaches a jury, and Georgia's offer of settlement rule can shift attorney fees onto a party that refuses a reasonable offer.
