Legal Question in Civil Litigation in California

My name is Jason Wayne Naillieux. I live in California and remember reading in some civil law book about a hearing that is designed to tell the person that has questions in regards to the law and what he or she may do. The book I read it in explained that the hearing is where the Judge hears what has happened and judges what has happened to you by telling you that this is the type of law that it is and these are your possible remedies in an A,B,C description. I am looking to hire an attorney and so far all of them has told me that there is no such thing and that no attorney will file for that type of hearing for me. If you would please help me with the name of that hearing I will be extremely grateful. Its like a CIVILE hearing.Thank you.

Sincerely,

Jason Wayne Naillieux

Sorry, but the lawyers you have talked to are correct. There is no hearing like that and judges don't ever do that. There is such a thing as a "civil" hearing, but that just means any court hearing that is not a criminal case. There is no civil hearing where the things you describe happens. Either the book you read was wrong or you are not remembering what you read correctly. The only way a person can describe what has happened and get an explanation of the law on the subject and possible remedies is to hire a lawyer to evaluate your case and explain your options. That is what we do.
