Do you offer alternative dispute resolution methods?
Our approach towards dispute resolution does not always involve litigation. In fact, to preserve the relationship between the parties involved in a lawsuit, we may favour alternative dispute resolution methods.
For our clients based in London or throughout the UK, two commonly used alternative dispute resolution methods are:
- Mediation: a mediator helps the two parties reach a mutually beneficial solution. Finding common ground is attempted before undertaking any court proceedings. It can be used for commercial or family disputes;
- Arbitration: an independent party, known as the arbitrator, is also used in this case. In most cases, they are accredited by the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators and the independent decision made by the arbitrator is legally binding.
Some forms of alternative dispute resolution may be more suitable for some matters, compared to others. The decision should depend on the desired outcome, how fast the dispute can be sorted, and the associated costs.
