Which of the following is typically consulted for civil case representation?

• A. Clerk of the General District Court
• B. Attorney
• C. Mediation
• D. Bar association

Answer: (B)

In civil cases, you typically seek legal counsel to represent you because a licensed attorney can interpret the law, draft and file documents, negotiate settlements, and advocate in court on your behalf. An attorney is trained to navigate civil procedure and protect your rights throughout the case. The clerk of the General District Court handles administrative duties like filing and records; they don’t provide legal representation. Mediation is a dispute-resolution process, not representation. A bar association is a professional organization that may offer referrals or resources, but it does not represent clients in court.
