Each year, millions of people look to the law to resolve disputes arising out of private transactions, business, personal relationships, and more. Under the guidance of leading scholars and practitioners, Harvard Law students study the theory and practice of civil litigation and the rules and statutes that govern the process by which substantive rights and duties are enforced in federal and state courts.
