What Is Malicious Prosecution & How To Prove It

Participating in legal proceedings is costly, especially if you are brought into court - repeatedly - by the same plaintiff for something that has already been resolved or is not worthy of legal proceedings. The term malicious prosecution describes lawsuits filed:


  • To intentionally harm, deplete, or wear a defendant down.

  • Without legal merit.

  • Harass the defendant (who ultimately becomes a victim of the plaintiff).


Malicious prosecution cases are handled in civil court. While it does require you to enter the legal arena once again, hiring an experienced personal injury lawyer is essential to recoup your expenses and additional damages.
