How do you win a civil action lawsuit?

In: Law & Legal Issues, Civil Lawsuits, Court Procedure [Edit categories]

Answer:

In order to win, you must show the decider of fact (judge or jury) that you have established all necessary elements to make your claim under the law by a preponderance of the evidence. Basically, you have to establish that it is more likely that not that things happened the way you say they did, and that under the law, if they happened that way, you are entitled to recover.
