Approximately three weeks after you file the law suit there will be an initial hearing. This is called the conciliation hearing.

Usually, the following people attend the conciliation hearing:

- the opposing party and/or his/her lawyer
f you and the opposing party cannot come to a mutual agreement, there will be another hearing, the so-called court hearing.
The following people attend the court hearing:

- you and/or your lawyer
