The Lawyer is pretty good for current trends in litigation. However, full articles are not always viewable if you use the free subscription but it is a good starting point.

As mentioned above, many law firms publish their own updates on trends in their practice areas. I personally find the Herbert Smith Freehills blogs provide very comprehensive updates (hsfnotes.com) - they cover a good range of practice areas, including litigation, which is something they are quite well known for.

We may also discuss civil litigation. As this area is very broad, encompassing litigation for contractual and tortious wrongs and the burden of proof in civil cases is that of the balance of probabilities, further differentiating it from criminal litigation
