Litigation is the judicial system's mechanism for resolving disputes between one or more parties. It is the formal means to solve problems. Litigation begins with a dispute between two or more persons, companies, or institutions. If they cannot settle their problems, the next step is to hire lawyers to resolve the dispute. If the parties cannot reach a mutual resolution, the matter will go to court.

Generally, lawyers act on behalf of the disputing parties and present their arguments to a judge. The lawyer's primary role is determining whom, where, and when to sue, what legal issues to raise, how to investigate the facts, finding the facts, and applying the appropriate legal principles. The judge is the referee to make sure the lawyers follow the rules of the "game". The judge will ultimately decide the outcome of the case or supervise the jury in its decision.
