Steps to filing a tort lawsuit:
- 1. Identify the party responsible for your injury or loss
- 2. Determine the specific tort committed against you
- 3. Gather evidence to support your claim
- 6. File a complaint with the court
- 7. Participate in the discovery process
- 8. Attend the trial (if settlement is not reached)
The correct order is: Identify responsible party, determine tort, gather evidence, file complaint, discovery, attend trial.
