About Litigation & Dispute Resolution Services
Civil litigation typically involves summons and complaint, discovery, trial, and potentially an appeal. Each step is designed to build a case or defence, with opportunities for settlement or alternative dispute resolution along the way.
Yes, alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation and arbitration are commonly used to resolve disputes without the need for court proceedings. These methods are often faster, less formal, and can be less adversarial, making them suitable for many types of conflicts.
Arbitration is a dispute resolution technique where a neutral third party delivers a decision which is usually binding. Mediation involves a mediator who helps the disputing parties find a mutually acceptable solution, but does not make a binding decision.
Consider the potential costs, the time commitment, the impact on relationships, and alternative resolutions. It’s essential to consult with a legal professional to understand the complexities and implications of your specific case.
