[At Flex Legal we are able to provide flexible language services](/hire/) to cover your legal needs on a short term basis. These on demand translation services are able to cover absenteeism, to help clear a backlog of work, or to assist in preparing for big changes or a major court case.

Litigation is a common and necessary feature of the law. It refers to the process of resolving disputes via the court system, and may be considered in two categories: civil and commercial. Civil litigation deals with disputes between two people, whereas commercial litigation resolves disputes involving at least one non-human entity, such as a business. This practice area is adversarial and requires the court to consider both black letter law and the context of the dispute to reach a verdict. 

The support of experienced and respected litigation specialists on a temporary basis, can be the difference between winning and losing a dispute, but it can also help your organisation through a challenging period caused by staff shortages and the sheer weight of work.
