Civil laws, also known as civil law systems or civilian legal systems, are legal systems that originate from Roman law and are primarily based on written laws or codes. Unlike common law systems, which rely heavily on judicial decisions and precedents, civil law systems emphasize comprehensive codification of laws.
In civil law systems, laws are usually organized into a systematic and comprehensive code, covering various legal subjects such as contracts, torts, property, family, succession, and more. These codes are often designed to be clear, accessible, and detailed, providing a framework for legal disputes and transactions.
