Discrimination Lawsuit. A lawsuit is a civil action brought before a court of law in which a plaintiff, a party who claims to have received damages from a defendant's actions, seeks a legal or equitable remedy. The defendant is required to respond to the plaintiff's complaint.

And many injury claims are resolved through settlement negotiations before a lawsuit is even filed.
