Civil law deals with legal matters involving individuals and companies in areas such as family, property rights, contracts, and torts. Civil law is a very broad field, with each area containing numerous subtopics related to that field. 

Individuals or companies seeking legal advice and representation in civil law matters can turn to a civil attorney who can assist them with drafting contracts, filing claims, providing legal defense, handling inheritances and wills, divorce, and many other matters covered by civil law in Israel.

Family Law Attorney

One of the areas of civil law that places a significant burden on the courts is family law. Family law includes divorce law and inheritance law, and the demand for legal assistance in these areas continues to grow. 

The burden on the courts regarding family matters led to the decision that, beginning in 2016, the Magistrates’ Courts in Israel became exclusively responsible for handling cases relating to family law. Accordingly, a family law attorney represents clients before the Magistrates’ Court and provides legal advice and support throughout the court proceedings.

Legal Advice on Property Law and Property Rights

Property law and property rights are also part of civil law and include regulations and laws concerning the property of individuals, companies, and corporations. Legal assistance in property-law matters is also relevant to legal cases involving inheritances and wills.

Legal Representation in Tort and Contract Law

Contract drafting, drafting statements of claim, and drafting statements of defense are carried out by an attorney specializing in contract law within the field of civil law. When filing a claim against an individual or company, or when legal defense is required, it is important to obtain professional legal assistance in order to receive appropriate representation in court proceedings.
