Here are some things that we will consider before filing a complaint are.
Do I have a case?
Consult with an attorney that specializes in the type of case that you want to bring.
They can tell you if your claim has any merit, and will lay out the process and your obligations if you want to pursue the case.
What court will hear my case?
The court you choose to file your case may be based on your location or on the type of case that you have.
For example, federal courts have jurisdiction over certain cases, like those having to do with the constitution. Most local business disputes will work in local courts. Again, your attorney will know.
Am I filing on time?
You’ve probably heard of the statute of limitations.
If you’ve waited too long to file the lawsuit, it may be too late.
