Commercial Litigation is a broad term, but if you have a legal issue that affects the core of your business strategy and application, then your issue falls into the realm of commercial litigation. For example, if you run a local shop and your supplier cashes your check without delivering their goods, then you have grounds for commercial litigation. In contrast, if someone falls on the sidewalk in front of your store and chooses to sue you, this is not relevant to the core of your business and will be handled differently under the law. Generally, commercial litigation refers to disputes between two businesses.
