Alternative Dispute Resolution

The use of mediation and other forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is expanding. ADR, in the form of mediation or arbitration, offers alternative ways of settling a dispute rather than resorting to legal proceedings or as a way of encouraging resolution at a strategically opportune time alongside court proceedings (which can take a number of months or even years to get to a trial).  The courts promote the use of ADR wherever possible to avoid matters going to a final hearing.
