What is civil liability

Civil liability refers to the legal responsibility of an individual or an organization to pay damages or compensate for harm caused to another party as a result of their wrongful act or negligence. It is a legal concept that holds individuals or entities accountable for their actions or omissions that cause harm or violations of legal rights. Civil liability can arise in various areas of law, such as personal injury, contract disputes, property damage, professional malpractice, or product liability. When found liable, the responsible party may be required to pay monetary damages, restore the injured party to their original condition, or take other remedial actions as determined by a court of law.
