Alternative Dispute Resolution & Mediation

Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a process that helps people resolve disputes without going to administrative or civil court. It is usually less formal, less expensive, and less time-consuming than a trial. ADR can also help improve communication between the parties. ADR aims to create a voluntary, consensual agreement rather than having a judge or other authority decide the case.
