Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a method of solving disputes without having to go to Court. It involves having all the people involved meeting together, explaining each other’s side of the matter to try and reach an agreement. ADR can be used in any legal dispute, from family law right down to employment disputes.
At Verae Center, we offer the following two types of ADR:
Mediation involves assisting the parties involved in a dispute in their communications. By facilitating this communication, the relevant information is gathered and options for settling the dispute are brought forward by the mediator. One of our partners is a trained and experienced mediator. With her many years of experience in this field, she can ensure the smoothest mediation process for you.
This involves bringing the dispute in front of a third person (the arbitrator) who can issue a legally binding decision that the parties must accept. Our team can help you prepare for arbitration proceedings and represent your interests.
